CAF ATHLETE RIDER CODE OF CONDUCT AGREEMENT
Requirements for challenged athlete participation in CAF cycling events:
- Athletes agree to abide by all direction and to comply with all instructions and commands from CAF staff and ride leaders;
- Athletes agree to professionally and enthusiastically represent CAF and to speak positively on our behalf when called upon;
- Athletes must have at least baseline knowledge of CAF’s programs and ability to relate such to fundraisers, donors, sponsors, etc.;
- Athletes will conduct themselves morally and ethically respectable at all times and will not solicit other riders for their own personal gain;
- Athletes will demonstrate a proven ability to effectively participate in the rides (i.e. achieve and maintain the proper levels of training, fitness and the positive attitude required for these highly strenuous events);
- Athletes assume responsibility for the acquisition and maintenance of their own equipment leading into the event (during the events and training rides, mechanical support will be provided);
