In consideration of my application for entry into Ride for a reason 2024 being accepted, I accept these terms and conditions of participation in the event, intending to be legally bound for myself and my successors, executors and administrators.

Event participation
I understand that Ride for a reason is a personal challenge event whereby I nominate how many kilometres I will ride during the month of January 2024. Ride for a reason is not a race. However, while there are no ‘winners’, the leader board on the website will display the names of participants who have raised the most money and ridden the most Km’s. I acknowledge that I am responsible for tracking my Kilometres and updating my personal fundraising page.
