"Stand tall in knowing you're about to be admitted into a club where
membership can't be bought. There's only one door. A door open to all,
regardless of what they ride. Riding is the key that gains you
admittance. One of the most heralded titles within The Association is
that of 'Rider'." - Mark Johnson about Iron Butt Association Membership


   
There are 5 stages to completing an Iron Butt Ride: 

1. Plan a route
2. Get a start witness
3. Do the ride
4. Get an end witness
5. Complete the documentation and send it off
 

Rides can be done at a time of your suiting. If you're not up to it on the day you planned, no worries, leave it till another time. Rides do not require any sort of pre-registration.Only by following the IBA rules whilst doing your ride and the ride being certified by the IBA will you gain membership of the Association. Please note: some rides require the completion of other certified rides prior to the attempt. Print out and study the rules by following the link at the bottom of the page.
