⭐ TOMRV 2026 — What. A. Weekend.
June 6–7, 2026
What an unforgettable second year with our new crew bringing this iconic 40+ year ride back to life. You all showed up with energy, grit, humor, and a whole lot of heart — and wow, did it make for a weekend to remember.
Saturday gave us sun, heat, humidity, and a whole lot of hydration stops. Riders fueled up on everything from classic bars and bananas to a full‑on charcuterie spread in Bellevue along the mighty Mississippi. Iowa hospitality never disappoints.
Check‑in? Easy‑peasy.
Dorm keys? Improved and smooth.
Bike storage? A total win.
And yes — riders were greeted with an icy‑cold Busch Light at valet bike check‑in, because TOMRV knows how to set the tone.
After settling into dorms, everyone kicked back for a night of rest before Sunday’s adventure.
And then… Sunday said, “Hold my beer.”
The rain Iowa desperately needed arrived — and arrived in full force. But our tiny‑yet‑mighty crew jumped into action, making sure riders were safe, supported, and moving forward. SAG drivers, volunteers, and riders worked together like a well‑oiled machine.
Despite the weather drama, the weekend brought:
• Minimal mechanicals — Iowa roads proving once again they’re smoother than Illinois
• No major injuries (unless you count one brave finger vs. a bagel cutter)
• Huge smiles, even in the downpour
• A whole lot of stories we’ll be laughing about for years
The photo album is public, so please share your pictures of your TOMRV adventure — the sunshine, the storms, the snacks, the climbs, the camaraderie.
A formal survey will be coming soon… but first, our crew needs a nap. A long one.
Thank you, riders and volunteers, for making TOMRV 2026 unforgettable.
You’re the reason this ride continues to thrive.
