- Assistance: Assistance is strictly forbidden outside of the dedicated areas. On the original Enduro Series / French Enduro Cup, these areas are limited to the paddock.
- Equipment tagging: During the race plate collection, each rider will have to come with his bike to get it tagged on the forks, frame, swing arm and wheels.
8/ Please note when collecting the race plate
To collect your race plate, you will have to:
- Show your 2013 FFC / UCI license (with a mention of the medical certificate) or a medical certificate allowing you to take part in a MTB race (or a cycling UFOLEP license with a mention of the medical certificate). No other license will be authorized.
- Come with your bike to get it tagged (wheels, frame, forks and swing arm)
- Bring a deposit of 100 Euros to receive the timing chip
Insurance for the non-holders of a FFC license: the organizer subscribes an liability insurance for all the riders. The FFC license holders benefit from an individual accident insurance thanks to their license. If a non-holder wish to have the same cover, they will be able to buy a day license when collecting the race plate.
