COMPULSORY AND RECOMMENDED EQUIPMENT

Participants must have their helmets on their heads with the chin strap attached from the moment

they arrive at the start until the end of the race.

Any participant who does not have the compulsory equipment at the start of the race will not be

allowed to compete. Any participant who does not have the compulsory equipment during the race

may be removed from the course or receive a time penalty.

In the event that a participant fails to respect the rules on compulsory equipment, the Organiser

cannot be held responsible for any incidents that arise, or their consequences.

10. TIMING

XC / EnduRoc / EnduRoc Electrique / Tri Roc Races

Timing will be adapted depending on each race’s format and constraints. You will receive your timing

device when you collect your race number.

The EnduRoc and the EnduRoc Electriqu ranking will be established by adding the time taken for each

special.

The Roc Trophy ranking will be established as follows: every day there will be a ranking and a prize

giving ceremony for the stage of the day and the overall ranking.

Rando races

Rando races are also timed. However, there will be no final ranking for these events.

If a participant starts the race without going through the gridding procedure, his participation will be

considered invalid, and he will not be included in the ranking.

11. FEEDING STATIONS & MAINTENANCE

Feeding stations will be at the riders’ disposal.

Participants will only have access to refreshment points on the day of the race for which they are

registered.

Participants must ensure that, when they leave feeding stations, they have enough food and water to

reach the following station.

Maintenance is strictly limited to the “feeding station” areas. It is strictly forbidden to change bikes

or wheels during a race. Participants are allowed to offer one another technical assistance.

As set out in the regulations (Art. 4.2.048 of the UCI Cycling Regulations), participants and their UCI

MTB or national teams are responsible for placing their equipment in the technical assistance area.

Only the riders themselves or their teammates (from the same UCI MTB team or the same national

team) can repair or change equipment within this area. Members from the same UCI MTB team or

national team are also allowed to provide technical assistance to one another outside these areas

(Art. 4.2.049 of the UCI Cycling Regulations). The technical assistance areas are the same as the

refreshment areas.

- 11 -

No follower vehicles are allowed. It is strictly forbidden for any vehicle to enter the forest.

Only official motorcycles are allowed on the circuit; these will be clearly marked and their riders will

be wearing official bibs. There will be a limited number for each race, and they will be easy to

identify:

An opening motorcycle;

A race commentary motorcycle for the finish line;

A race management motorcycle;

A press motorcycle (camera);

A doctor’s motorcycle;

A sweep motorcycle.

If a participant falls during the EnduRoc, the other riders are responsible for stopping to raise the

alarm. Any participant who has stopped to help another participant during a special should inform

an official at the finish line. He will be allowed to start the special again.

In the Tri Roc, participants are not allowed to help one another.

12. RESPECT FOR THE ENVIRONMENT

In order to respect the environment and the natural surroundings in which the event takes place, it is

strictly forbidden to leave litter (paper, plastic wrappers) on the course. Bins will be provided at all

feeding stations. Participants must make use of these when disposing of waste.

Waste collection points will also be set up at strategic points along each course. Participants can

dispose of waste in these areas, which will be marked by netting placed on the ground. The locations

of these areas will be published on the event website (www.rocazur.com).

Participants must hold onto their litter and wrappers and wait until they reach the places set up by

the organisation to dispose of them.

Any contestant seen breaking these rules will be disqualified from the race in question by an official

controller or a member of the organisation.

13. RANKINGS / PRIZES

Rankings will be established for every race except the rando races.

These rankings will take into account the categories specific to each race, which have been

determined in advance.

Not every category awards prizes to its winners.

Prize winners must be present at the prize giving ceremony. If they are absent they will not receive

their prizes.

Some races have their own prize grid. The grid can be consulted below.

- 12 -

Only athletes with licences issued by cycling federations affiliated with the UCI are eligible to receive

prize money.

The Organiser will pay the total prize money to the FFC, which will be responsible for awarding prize

money to participants or their national federations.

the race or a by being given a time penalty:

- Failure to pass a checkpoint; - Parking a bike on the course or riding in the wrong direction; - Straying from the course; - Test runs during the race itself and outside the official reconnaissances; - Not wearing a helmet at any point during the race; - Refusing to let a faster participant overtake; - Dropping litter; - Debasement of the sponsors’ logos printed on the number plates.

In the event of an offence not listed above, the Organiser, with the backing of FFC and UCI officials,

15. TIME LIMITS

To guarantee participants’ safety, it is vital that they do not go over the time limit set for the end of

each race.

Cut-off times will be arranged at various points along the course (feeding stations). After the cut-off

time listed for each point, it will no longer be possible for riders to leave the location by the main

race route. End of race shuttles will be set up by the Organisation to take the last participants from

these strategic points to the nature base.

In the Tri Roc, all participants will need to have reached the transition area between mountain biking

and running (T2) by 4 hours after the race start at the latest. After this point, participants will not be

allowed to take part in the running stage.

The chief race steward has the power to modify this elimination cut-off time.

16. MEDICAL AID

Medical assistance will be provided by doctors and mobile emergency aid units. If they are needed,

these units can be called by the signallers posted along each course, who are equipped with radio

transmitters. If advised to do so by a doctor, the Organiser reserves the right to withdraw any

participant deemed unfit to continue from the race and have them escorted from the site. Any

competitor who requests attention from a doctor or first-aid worker agrees to fully accept their

authority and judgement.

If need be, in the interests of the person in question, the emergency services will be called. From that

point on, the emergency services will take charge of the situation and use any means they deem

appropriate, including transport by helicopter.

- 14 -

Calls to the emergency services can be made by dialling “18” on a French phone.

Participants who receive medical treatment during or after a race must inform the Organiser using a

standard form within five days. After this deadline, notifications will not be accepted and the

Organiser will not be held liable.

If the event has to be cancelled in the event of a reason beyond the Organiser’s control, according to
