Tour de Corn is committed to providing a safe, organized, and enjoyable cycling event for all participants. Please review the following policies prior to registering.

2026 Registration & Refund Policy
All registrations are non-refundable.

We hate that you won't be able to join us this year. Because we are a charity ride, we don't offer refunds. If you purchased merchandise, we can redirect your registration fee to the S&H costs to get your gear to you this summer. 

Can’t make it and pre-ordered merchandise? You can send $9.00 via Square or mail a check to PO Box 99 East Prairie, MO 63845 for USPS S&H. Once we have your merchandise in the mail, we will follow-up with tracking information. If we do not hear from you by August 15, your merchandise will be considered donated back into our charity efforts. 

Tour de Corn is a rain-or-shine event. Registration fees support event planning, supplies, safety coverage, and charitable causes. For this reason, refunds cannot be issued due to weather, personal schedule changes, or other circumstances.

2026 Deferral Policy

March 1, 2026 - May 15, 2026 | Registrants may defer their 2026 registration to Tour de Corn 2027.

After May 15, 2026, no deferrals will be offered. Deferrals are only valid for one year. No subsequent deferrals (deferrals for multiple years) are allowed.

 

2026 Transfer Policy

March 1, 2026 - May 15, 2026 | Registrants may transfer their registration to another individual. The participant is responsible for managing all financial transactions with the other individual. No transfers are available after this date. Registrations are non-transferable unless approved by event organizers in advance.

 

Weather Policy
The ride will take place rain or shine.

As stated in the event waiver, “The Event Organizer has the sole discretion to alter, change, or cancel the event.”

If the event is altered or canceled, Tour de Corn does not guarantee full or partial refunds of any fees paid.

In the event of severe weather or unsafe conditions, organizers may delay, modify, or cancel the ride in the interest of participant safety. Any such decisions will be communicated as promptly as possible. But all riders will ride at their own risk. 

Safety Requirements
- Helmets are required for all riders.
- Riders must obey all traffic laws.
- This is an open-road ride.
- Riders under 18 must be accompanied by a registered adult.
- Participants ride at their own risk.
- e-bikes are allowed, but riders must practice safe riding around other riders.

Route & Support Policy
Routes are subject to minor changes due to road conditions, construction, or safety concerns.

Rest stops are staffed until 2:00 PM, unless the final rider on that route has already passed through.

SAG support is provided throughout the event; however, riders are responsible for basic mechanical readiness prior to ride day.

Photo & Media Release
By registering for Tour de Corn, participants grant permission for photographs and video taken during the event to be used for promotional purposes, including website, social media, and marketing materials.

Code of Conduct
Tour de Corn is a community-centered event. Participants are expected to conduct themselves in a respectful and sportsmanlike manner toward fellow riders, volunteers, and community members.

Event organizers reserve the right to remove any participant who behaves in a manner that compromises safety or disrupts the event.
