Insurances

What is the Personal Accident Insurance?

This Personal Accident Insurance is offered by the organiser's insurer so that you are correctly covered during your participation in the Roc d’Azur 2024. It is optional but is strongly recommended.

As you may know, the vast majority of your usual insurance policies (including guarantees included with your bank cards, loan insurance, etc.) totally exclude any participation in sports events either on an amateur or professional basis, and therefore exclude the risks involved in your taking part in the Roc d’Azur.

It is therefore important that you check the extent of the cover provided by your normal insurance policies (and the exclusions) and, if you are not sufficiently covered or not covered at all, you should consider taking out the proposed insurance policies by clicking on the link below. This insurance will cover you if you have an accident whilst taking part in the event, whether or not you were responsible and whether or not there is an identified responsible third party. You are only covered during the event from the time you cross the starting line until the time you cross the finishing line or you abandon the event.

It guarantees the following accidents that may occur during the event:

  • in the event of death or total or partial permanent disability (due to this accident), the payment of a capital (within the limits of the purchased insurance option),
  • coverage of medical costs (within the limits of the purchased insurance option), and, if necessary, repatriation.

This Individual Accident is optional but highly recommended. It can be taken out in addition to any existing insurance you may already have or if you are not already covered. You may purchase the cover from the insurer of your choice, from your federation or from Marsh, organizer’s broker, whose proposed insurance (detailed notice and application form) can be consulted and downloaded by clicking on the link below.

Equipment

What equipment is required ?

All bikes used at the Roc d’Azur must comply with the official standards currently in force, as defined by the FFC (French Federation of Cycling) and the UCI. Participants are fully responsible for ensuring that the equipment they use, and its state of repair, are in accordance with current standards. For safety reasons and to reduce the risk of incidents during races, all participants are required to comply with the following rules regarding equipment.

“Mountain electric bike are exclusively accepted on races countening the word “RANDO” in their names and on the Enduroc Electrique. The use of an electric bike on a race non fitting those criteria will disqualify the participant and will be considered as no longer in the race”

Find the mandatory equipment in the rules of the event and on this table.

What do you recommend for someone taking part in their first Rando Roc ?

Ideally, experienced riders who have not taken part in competitions, should use a “full suspension” bike. This is the most suitable bike in terms of comfort because it has front and back suspension to absorb shocks. However, it is also possible to do the Roc with a semi-rigid bike, because the routes are not too tough. You can find the mandatory equipment in the rules of the event.

D-Day

Is there a closed bike park ?

Yes, a secure closed bike park is available day and night, at a price of €2 per day and €5 per night.

Are recovery treatments available ?

A team of osteopaths are available either before or after your race.

After the race

When will the results be published ?

The results will be available on the evening of each event on the official website.

Are there rankings ?

Of course, you can measure yourself against the other participants, except on the “bike hikes” with “rando” in their names which are non-competitive.

When can I find my photos after the race ?

All photos will be available the week after the event at Sportograf.

Volunteers

Can I volunteer to help out?

Volunteers are the people who are there for others, the people who give their time, energy and dedication just for a smile or a thank you. Volunteers are the people without whom many events would simply not be possible.
Whether it's at baggage claim, number collection, refreshment points, at the roadside to make intersections safe, etc., the Volunteer is present on all fronts during an event. They are the key players in the Roc d'Azur.
We'd be mad to refuse enthusiastic helpers - maybe you can encourage others to help too? Bring your good humour and generous nature and join our hundreds of volunteers to help make this event run smoothly.
