2024 8th Annual Gold Star 500

Sat June 1 - Sat September 28, 2024 Springfield, IL 62791 US

Rider Expectations and Rules to Participate In the General Logan 200 and Gold Star 500

A few rules of engagement on the ride…

Riders who cannot keep up with the pace and who begin to slow the pack, will out of respect for the group’s schedule, take a break from riding and get in a support vehicle until they are ready to rejoin the group at the group’s pace. Riders must be physically capable of completing the ride and riding in challenging conditions (hills, wind, rain, and heat).  Due to safety concerns, riders who need repeated assistance from other riders will finish the ride as a member of the support crews.

Occasionally, due to hills, climbs and rider performance, the riding group may spread out. However, for safety, we will resume our pack riding ASAP. For the safety of the group, riders who break away from the group, either faster or slower, will be asked to adjust their riding or will ride in the support truck.

Each day will include schedule breaks with a few optional short breaks if needed.  We do not like to travel over 25 miles without a break.  At each break, riders will have an opportunity to refill bottles and stock up on nourishment.  They will also be briefed on any upcoming destinations, including the expected route, survivors, distance, conditions, etc.
