Assumption of Risk: The assumption of risk clause explicitly states that by signing the agreement, the participant understands and assumes any and all risks associated with the mountain biking activity. This may include risks that are inherent to the sport as well as those that may arise from the park's specific features, such as steep terrain, jumps, or exposed roots and rocks. 4. Indemnity: The indemnity clause is designed to protect the park owner or operator against any financial losses, expenses, or liabilities that may arise from any claims, lawsuits, or damages related to the participant's involvement in mountain biking. It states that the participant agrees to defend and hold harmless the park from any legal actions or financial burdens resulting from their participation.
