  6. Because cycling activities are quite challenging, they are not suitable for people with chronic or acute illnesses (such as cardiovascular diseases, etc.). Please consider your own physical condition.
  7. Legally, travel liability insurance only covers "sudden external accidents." Accidents or medical expenses caused by pre-existing or known health conditions (including but not limited to chronic diseases, relapses of acute diseases, pregnancy, etc.) are not covered. If you feel the coverage is insufficient, it is recommended that participants purchase other appropriate insurance before the activity, such as travel accident insurance or overseas emergency medical insurance, and confirm that the coverage meets their individual needs.
  8. Health Disclosure and Pre-departure Preparation: Travelers must truthfully provide complete health information as required by the travel agency and its staff, and present valid medical certificates when necessary. These are all part of the traveler's legal and contractual obligations. Sufficient physical fitness and health are required to safely complete the entire activity; it is recommended that travelers begin appropriate physical training and adjustments 1 to 3 months before departure to ensure the safety and smooth progress of the activity.

    Participants should carefully assess their own health condition to determine if they are fit to participate in this activity. If necessary, they should consult a doctor for evaluation and recommend that family or friends accompany them. Given that cycling tours are long-distance and physically demanding activities, if participants conceal or fail to truthfully disclose their health information, or if any accidents occur during the activity due to personal health factors, the participants will bear all related responsibilities and losses, and the company will not be held liable.
  10. I agree to the following guarantee regarding my physical condition and safety: I confirm that I am currently in good health and have no special physical conditions, pregnancy, cardiovascular disease, or other illnesses or symptoms that may affect my safe participation in the activity; if I have any relevant medical history, I have informed the travel agency in advance and have been assessed by myself or my doctor to confirm that I am safe to participate.

    If any danger or damage occurs during the activity due to personal behavior, judgment, or health factors, the individual shall bear the relevant responsibility, and the travel agency's legal liability shall not be affected.
    In the event of an accident, I will apply for a claim in accordance with the insurance company's regulations; for any part not covered by the insurance or for which the insurance amount is insufficient (such as medical expenses caused by the recurrence or deterioration of an illness, or situations that occur outside the insurance period), I agree to bear all personal and property losses myself.

Insurance Notice Regarding Independent Travel to Meeting Points on Overseas Tours: If participants choose to purchase their own airfare and travel independently from their departure point to the designated meeting point to join the group, the round-trip transportation and safety during this journey are not covered by the travel agency's itinerary or insurance.
