All images found on the Bicycle World TV are protected by the laws of copyright. This means the usage and ownership belong to their respective producers, photographers, videographers and copy writers who take the time to create it, unless otherwise agree to in writing.
Finding such great visual treats here on the Bicycle World TV does not give you permission to take them or use them in any way, shape or form for your website, print needs or any other way you can think of now and in the future. This includes commercial and personal use.
PERSONAL USE
We understand that many racers have blogs and such and would like to use the images for their stories and to show their sponsors that they are representing. And most photographers are here to help you be successful too. Many times simply requesting permission is all that it will take along with a link and photo credits to who ever produced it. But if a photographer is asking $10 or $20 for a photo, don't be cheap and not pay for an image. These images help you get FREE or severely discounted product from your sponsor. Photographers (pros at least) pay for tens of thousands of dollars in equipment and are working on the hill while you race. Paying for a photo is GOOD KARMA.
Many times simply requesting permission is all that it will take along with a link or giving photo credits to who ever produced it. And most photographers are here to help you be successful too. But again, please ask first.
COMMERCIAL USE
If you see a rider or product image from an event that you would like use in any marketing material please contact Dean Henthorn of Bicycle World TV directly. All the photographers featured on this site are for hire and have shot probably 1000 images or more of any given event. The product shot you have been looking for is probably a click away.
