Postponement of tours, change of program
The tours always take place in accordance with the announcement.

Any additional or reduced costs will be invoiced or reimbursed to the participant.

The decisions made and instructions given by the tour leader are in the interests of the group and must be followed. If a guest persistently and repeatedly opposes the tour guide's decisions, he can exclude him from the tour / trip.
In this case, the guest is not entitled to any financial compensation claims.
personal requirements
A good physical condition and condition is essential for your safety and the success of the tour / trip. The personal requirements depend on the degree of difficulty according to the advertisement of the tour / trip. The customer informs the organizers of any physical or psychological conditions that could affect the trip or his health during the trip.
individual responsibility
Mountain biking is associated with an increased risk. A considerable degree of personal responsibility and prudence on the part of the participants as well as compliance with the rules of conduct for mountain bikers is required.
The participant undertakes:
- for mutual recognition, respect, helpfulness and camaraderie in the group;
- not to drive beyond one's means and abilities;
- Immediately communicate any feeling of overwhelming or problems with biking to the tour guide
- to an environmentally conscious behavior;
- to follow the instructions of the tour guide;
- In the event of an accident, not to give any information (comments, reports, personal messages, letters, etc.) about the trip / tour to the public without the express consent of the guide or organizer.
equipment
When it comes to bike tours and events, it is mandatory to wear a helmet and gloves to protect yourself against injuries in the event of an accident. If this obligation is not complied with, the tour guide reserves the right to exclude participants from tours without compensation. Participants in bike tours undertake to start the journey with a well-maintained bike that is adapted to the needs of the tour. Under no circumstances is the organizer liable for personal injury or property damage caused by the poor condition of a mountain bike.
Liability and Compensation
SPURSICHER and its tour guides strive to ensure the greatest possible safety for the participants. Tours in nature and especially in alpine terrain are always associated with risks. By registering for a SPURSICHER event, the customer expressly recognizes these dangers and waives any claims for damages or other claims against SPURSICHER and employees in the event that the risk arises. By registering for the event, the participant also confirms that they have adequate insurance cover and that they are not overestimating their mountain biking skills:
Participation in a SPURSICHER event is at your own risk.
insurance
Insurance is the responsibility of the participant. Participation in the SPURSICHER events is at your own risk. It is strongly recommended that every participant take out comprehensive accident insurance including mountain risks and rescue costs. The participant must insure his property (bike, equipment) privately.
Rega membership is recommended.
Pictures, website
The participant does not claim any copyright to photos or videos that are made during the tour. He agrees that this image material may be used in the media and on the SPURSICHER.CH website. If the participant does not want this, he should note this when registering or notify us at the latest during the event.
