REGULATIONS
2025 IRATI XTREM BTT CYCLE EVENT REGULATIONS
1- The IX “IRATI XTREM BTT” Cyclist March will be held on Saturday, September 20, 2025. The departure time will be at 9.30 a.m. in Otsagabia (Navarra).
2- The march will be open to all cyclists over 18 years of age, and it is essential to present the current year's cycling federation license (2025). The RFEC License is accepted but NOT the one issued by the Mountain and Climbing Sports Federation with BTT extension. If you do not have it, you MUST sign up for the day license, valid for the day of the march only.
3- At the pick-up, you must present your ID and the Federation License. If you do not present the License, you will be required to take out day insurance. If the DNI or any official document certifying the identity is not presented, the number will not be issued. If the number is collected by another person, the official authorization must be presented as well as the documentation specified therein.
4- Registration is personal and non-transferable. Any change must be authorized by the Organization.
5- Participants without a number are not permitted.
6- Several sections of the event are carried out by road. In these, the Organization is governed by the current traffic regulations. Participants must abide by the regulations of the Current Traffic Code and are considered personally responsible for all infractions they may commit.
7- The use of a helmet is mandatory.
8- The organization is not responsible for any accident caused or suffered by the participant, who must be covered by the insurance of the license, nor is it responsible for any expenses or debts that may be incurred by the participants during the march, or for any loss or damage to the bicycles or other equipment of the participants.
9- The organization will have mechanical assistance at various points along the route. In the event of a breakdown, labor will be free, but the parts will be paid for by the participants.
10- When the race takes place on roads, it will be open to traffic. The fact that a leading vehicle is circulating does not mean that traffic is stopped, but rather it is a signpost.
11- The organization reserves the right to make the necessary modifications, when for any reason it deems it necessary.
12- Under no circumstances will it be permitted to overtake the vehicle/bike leading the way. Anyone who does so will be automatically expelled from the IRATI XTREM BTT, and must hand over their number to a member of the Organization, and continue the route at their own risk. The pace of the head of the march will be controlled by the leading Motorcycle/Bike (Bike 1). The event services (refreshments, assistance...) WILL NOT BE ACTIVE until BIKE 1 arrives. If any participant decides to go at a faster pace than Bike 1, he/she will be out of the march and will not be able to demand its services, making the route at his/her own risk.
13- In areas of the route where it is advised for safety reasons, the speed of the participants may be controlled by vehicles/bikes of the organization. In these cases, all instructions given from them will be mandatory.
14- At any time, the organization reserves the right to neutralize the march and to resolve any incident that may occur during the course of it.
15- If due to force majeure (pandemic, storm or other reason) the March cannot be held, the Organization will not refund the registration fee. If this is the case, the Organization is not responsible for extra expenses related to participation such as accommodation or travel. However, the Organisation is committed to exploring the option of changing the dates or moving the event to the following year. In this case, the option of moving the registration to the new date will be offered.
16- No amount will be refunded (not even in the form of registration) to cycle tourists who, having paid the registration fee in advance, do not attend the march. In no case will personal shipments be made.
17- The mere fact of registering for this march implies acceptance of these regulations and the waiver of all rights against the Organisation arising from damages that may be caused during the march.
18- The participant, by registering, gives his or her personal image to the Organisation on an exclusive basis, so that only the Organisation (or the companies it designates) can obtain photographs and exploit them later, either by giving them to the media or by putting them up for sale.
19- The IRATI XTREM BTT is a GREEN MARCH, so it respects both Road Safety and the Environment.
20- IRATI XTREM BTT will take place in a sensitive natural environment, so participants must be completely respectful of the environment.
All participants must:
• Respect other users of public roads, not create dangerous situations for others, or for themselves.
• Be aware of the risk involved in simply getting on a bicycle and trust in compliance with road safety regulations to mitigate it.
• Always act with education, responsibility and respect.
• Enjoy nature. Live in harmony with the environment, promoting its care and respect. Practice sports in places and in ways that do not cause damage to the environment.
