ON THE COURSE...

... Traffic regulations (StVO) must be adhered to at all times, as the route is not closed to public traffic. Every participant rides at his/her own risk. The organizer accepts no responsibility for accidents or any other liability (including third party) before, during or after the event.

... The cyclists should respect all orders given by race officials and policemen. Undisciplined riders will be disqualified and deleted from the result list. Severe violations of traffic regulations will be reported to the responsible authorities (personal data).

... There are four refreshment stations and one station with drinks only. For all participants it is strictly forbidden to throw away garbage outside the marked areas located next to the refreshment stations. Ignoring this rule will result in a disqualification. At the mentioned refreshment stations you will find a large number of garbage bags. Throwing away things can have negative effects on the continuation of the Ötztaler Cycling Marathon

… It is strictly forbidden to paint on the asphalt road or sidewalk! In case of violation participants can be disqualified and must pay the cleaning service.

... Medical assistance is provided by the Red Cross

... Escort cars are not recommended due to environmental reasons and in order to protect the cyclists' health and safety. Our utmost aim is to avoid public traffic by installing a number of detours for private vehicles. Slow cars or escort vehicles will be punished for obstruction to traffic by the police. The escorted cyclist will be disqualified immediately.

... Further road blocks and waiting times up to one hour are always possible. The organizing committee provides even more service teams this year. There is no need of private escort cars.

... The closing car and sufficient broom buses are on the course.
