RELEASE AND WAIVER OF LIABILITY, ASSUMPTION OF RISK AND INDEMNITY AND PARENTAL CONSENT AGREEMENTS (“AGREEMENT”)

IN CONSIDERATION of being permitted to participate in any way in Bicycle Excursion Adventure Corporation or Bicycle for Life sponsored Bicycling Activities (“Activity”) I, for my personal representatives, my heirs, next of kin, and myself, I hereby freely agree to and make the following contractual representations and agreements.
