(1) The Jeantex-TOUR-Transalp 2010 is an event of the Delius Klasing Verlags GmbH.

(2) Updated versions of these terms and conditions will be published on the homepage. They are, in their then-current form, part of the contract between organizer and participant.

(1) Everyone who has reached the age of 18 is entitled to start. Only 2-person teams are allowed at the TOUR. Participation as an individual competitor is not possible. Racing bicycles or equipment, such as helmets, drinking bottles, etc., not specified in the regulations, or which may in any way impair the health or safety of participants or visitors of the event, is only permitted for use with the explicit approval of the organizer.

(2) Organizational measures will be announced to the participants by the organizer prior to the start of the event. Instructions of the organizer and event staff are to be followed without exception. If these instructions are not complied with and this disrupts the orderly progress of the event or jeopardizes the safety of participants or visitors, the organizer is entitled to exclude the person or disqualify the participant in question. Legally binding declarations can be made to the participants by authorized event personnel only.

(1) Registrations can only be accepted on our homepage www.tour-transalp.de by registering online using the “web form.” Online registrations are binding for the applicant. After successful completion of the online registration process the applicant will receive a preliminary confirmation. A binding contract will only be accomplished after the applicant's receipt of an explicit registration confirmation, which will also contain the request for payment of the entry fee. Payment must be made by both participants in full within 2 weeks after receipt of the confirmation. If both applicants fails to make payment within the specified time, the organizer has the right to withdraw from the contract by revoking the registration confirmation. In this case the applicant will be charged a fee of €50 for necessary expenditures on the part of the organizer.

(2) The entry fee of the Jeantex-TOUR-Transalp 2010 is €625 per participant. The services provided can be found on the homepage. Reservations for the Transalp-Camp and the return transportation service are binding and need to be paid in cash during the accreditation.

(3) Payments can be made by direct debit only, or, in case of participants with a foreign bank account, by money transfer.

(4) The organizer will send a confirmation to the participant after receiving the registration application and the entry fee of both team members. The organizer reserves the right to exclude or disqualify a participant at any time, if he or she has provided false personal data, he or she is subject to a ban by the BRD or if the participant is suspected of taking part in the race after having taken banned substances (doping).

(5) The right to participate is not transferable without explicit approval of the organizer.

(6) If a registered participant does not enter the race or declares to the organizer his or her withdrawal, he or she is not entitled to a refund of the entry fee.

(7) In the accreditation process, the participant will receive the necessary documents only if he or she provides his/her registration confirmation and identity card/passport. Should the participant be unable to pick up those documents in person, he or she must give a third person power of attorney to do it for him/her. The documents cannot be mailed.

(8) Delius Klasing can exclude someone from the event if:

• he or she violates the regulations and/or rules and instructions (before or during the event) and

• he or she keeps disturbing the event or jeopardizes his/her own safety or the safety of someone else and

It is recommended that participants get coverage of a travel cancellation insurance.

(10) Cancellations can only be accepted when submitted in writing.

(11) The organizer sets an organizational limit of 1,200 starters. After exceeding this limit registrations will not be accepted.

In case of cancellation of the event / stage due to force majeure, failure to commence the race, or cancellation due to reasons the organizers have no control over (like bad weather), the participant has no right to claim a refund of the entry fee or a reimbursement for other damages, such as travel expenses or accommodation costs.

(4) The organizers disclaim all liability for damages that may arise because a participant is prevented by legal regulations and/or governmental orders to partake in the event.
