BROOM CARS
Participants who give up are strongly recommended to stay on the course and to wait for one of the „BROOM BUSES „. The event organizer will also publish the exact BROOM CAR LOCATIONS on several information boards on 25 August. The broom bus stations can be found near inns and gas stations along the marathon course, and in areas where the cyclists have enough space to wait for the next broom bus. The organizer does not accept any responsibility for damaged bicycles in the broom buses, during the race, at the refreshment stations and in the Bike Park. Bicycles and cyclists are taken back safely to Sölden but in separate cars. The Bike Park is located near the finish area (band stand). You can pick up your bicycle on presentation of your starting number or a valid photo ID card. Opening times of the Bike Park will be announced on Friday (check information boards). ALL bicycles must be picked up on Sunday, 27.08.2017 until 9:00 pm at the latest. For bicycles picked up later a fee of € 15 is charged. The pick-up place for bicycles after 9:00 pm, the official closing time of the Bike Park, will be announced (check information boards).
Bewachte Bike-Garage am Sonntag
Erstmals steht den Teilnehmern eine kostenlos bewachte Bike Garage am Sonntag von 13:30 - 22.00 Uhr zur Verfügung. Somit steht einer entspannten Abholung des Finisher-Trikots sowie der Teilnahme an der Pasta Party und Siegerehrung nichts mehr im Wege.

An ambulance will escort the participants along the whole race course. Additional ambulance cars are waiting in immediate vicinity to the Alpine passes: Kühtai, Brenner, Jaufenpass and Timmelsjoch. A rescue helicopter is available as well and three emergency doctors accompany the cyclists permanently. The first medical aid on the spot is free of charge. If the injured is taken to a hospital or somewhere else, the service must be paid extra.
We strongly recommend to check your already existing accident insurance, and to clarify - prior to the marathon - if your insurance is also valid for such types of sports events and if it covers costs arising from a marathon accident.
