Safety
Safety on the track
We are happy that we got all necessary permissions to organize Swiss Cycling Alpenbrevet 2018 by local police and communities. However, the permit contains many conditions that you must all comply with. Otherwise police announce that they won’t give any permissions for further events. The police consider the downhill from Sustenpass to Innertkirchen and the left-turn on the junction in Innertkirchen as very dangerous.
So we have to make sure that riders start in packs from Sustenpass. Every 5 minutes riders can start after the refreshing station on the pass for the downhill ride to Innertkirchen.
Start in Andermatt
You start in the individual start sector in the village of Andermatt by your free choice. Be ready at 6.45am.
For safety reasons we will interrupt the start after approx. 1000 participants for 3 to 5 minutes.
Neutralized section without timing between Andermatt and Wassen (start of the climb to Sustenpass)
The start in Andermatt is neutralized. Means that a "pace car" will drive in front of the field. The following rules apply to this section:
- The pace car must not be overtaken under any circumstances
- ONLY THE RIGHT WAY of the street may be used
- Oncoming traffic must be expected at all times
- Compliance with the rules is monitored by the police
