Important !
​
The GG 100 is NOT a race - you are responsible for your own safety at all time ! Via a tracking device your actual progress will be monitored and published (so your home front, fans, friends ... can follow you) but no official ranking will be made. Follow the traffic rules at any time, be visible especially at night, wear a helmet all time !
​
Drafting only for 'Duo'-teams. Spontaneous/social riding, resting and camping in groups is of course allowed.
​
In addition to the registration fee, you’ll need to pay a deposit of 100€ for the use of the tracker. This amount will be refunded after returning your tracker at the finish or sending it by post (in case you did not make it to the finish).
​
If a participant cancels his registration before August 1st 2021, he/she will receive a 50% refund.
If the cancelation is done after 1st of august, the participant will receive no refund.
The maximum number of participants is 50 (with exception of female riders), the minimum is 10.
​
At all-time the organization can decide (e.g. due to governmental restrictions) to cancel the event. In that case the organization will decide if the participants that already paid, will get a full refund or will be automatically registered for the next edition.
Mandatory documents to show us at the start of the course are:
*) your Insurance Certificate, from your liability insurance
*) a recent Medical Certificate, confirming your ability to practice long-distance endurance cycling, provided by your doctor. This can be as well a valid cycling license.​
