AGE LIMIT REQUIREMENTS

FUNDRAISING
The point of doing this, and other Zoo2Zoo rides is two fold. One is providing a safe and enjoyable ride during the event, the second is to raise funds and
awareness for the Black Dog Institute. Although there is no minimum amount to be raised, we do encourage participants to fundraise for the Black Dog Institute. All we ask as the event organisers is that do your best, tell your friends to hop on your very own Everyday Hero fundraising page and make a donation, no matter the amount. You may just surprise yourself at what you can raise. On average riders raise about $1,000 and come up with novel ways to raise funds - trivia nights, BBQs, morning teas etc.

CANCELLATIONS

Zoo2Zoo PROMOTIONAL KIT
Entrants must wear an official Zoo2Zoo riding shirt to participate in the Zoo2Zoo. If you have done a previous Zoo2Zoo, you are able to wear the riding shirt from that ride. Otherwise, you are able to purchase a jersey for $100. The cycling kit will be available for collection on the morning of the ride at the start of the Zoo2Zoo.
SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS
We welcome people with disabilities on the Zoo2Zoo and ask that other riders show the same consideration and support they would expect to receive from other riders. Zoo2Zoo Incorporated will use all reasonable efforts to cater for your particular disability where able.
SUPPORT VEHICLES
A support vehicle will follow each group of 20 riders and will specifically support those riders.
Zoo2Zoo SAG WAGON (aka the gruppetto)
A trailing support vehicle for riders is provided by Zoo2Zoo Incorporated. The Sag Wagon travels behind the last riders on the ride to ensure all riders arrive safely at the end of each day.

You must ride in a safe and responsible manner during the Zoo2Zoo and use common sense at all times. You should exercise caution on all public roads and operate defensively and courteously.
It is highly recommended to have BicyleNSW membership, or something similar that has insurance covered. Please consider carefully what insurance you require for your personal situation.
