The maps in this Bicycle Atlas on the Web (Atlas) were prepared by the volunteer ride leaders of the Hiawatha Bicycling Club (HBC). The maps are not reviewed regularly for road hazards, construction, or weather or traffic-related problems or any changes in the route. The rider is advised to preview all routes before riding them. HBC makes no warranties, express or implied, covering the maps in this Atlas. Riders using the routes in this Atlas agree to accept these routes as is and with all faults.
I, for myself, my heirs, executors, administrators and assigns, waive and release any and all claims for damages, for death, personal injury or loss of property that I may have, or which may accrue to me as a result of my use of the maps in this Atlas.
I discharge and release HBC and its ride leaders who have prepared the maps in this Atlas, and their respective agents and/or representatives from all liability arising out of, or connected in any way with my use of the maps in this Atlas, whether or not caused by the negligence of any of the preceding parties.
I acknowledge that bicycling over the routes in this Atlas contains risks, including, but not limited to:

My use of the maps in this Atlas is voluntary and done at my own risk. I voluntarily assume all risks of loss, damage, or injury that may be sustained while using the maps in this Atlas. I assume all the risk of injury that I may sustain in association with my physical fitness. I am fully aware of the fact that I must be fit and in good physical condition to ride the routes in this Atlas.
I understand that serious accidents may occur while using the maps in this Atlas and that riders on the routes in this Atlas may sustain mortal or serious injury as a consequence thereof. Nevertheless, I agree to assume these risks and to release and hold harmless HBC, its volunteer ride leaders who have prepared these maps, and their respective agents and/or representatives who might otherwise be liable to me (or my heirs and assigns) for damages, of whatsoever kind or nature.
