Registration

Maintenance & inspection of your bicycle and the bicycle inspection certificate

◆You cannot complete registration without submitting a bicycle inspection certificate

For safety reasons and to prevent accidents caused by poor maintenance, we ask all participants to have their bicycles properly maintained and inspected. To ensure thorough maintenance and inspection beforehand, submitting the bicycle inspection certificate prepared by the event office is mandatory. Please note that you will not be able to complete your on-site registration if you do not submit your bicycle inspection certificate.
Participating with a poorly maintained bicycle is extremely dangerous! Please cooperate so that mechanical problems and accidents can be prevented on the day of the event and everyone can enjoy a safe, fun and long ride.

◆Before the event, have each item on the bicycle inspection certificate checked at your nearest bicycle specialty shop

After obtaining the bicycle inspection certificate, please have the required maintenance and inspection (bike check) performed at a bicycle specialty shop before the event. The cost of maintenance and inspection is the responsibility of the participant.

You will need to submit the bicycle inspection certificate filled out by the specialty shop at on-site registration, so be sure to bring it.
