Ride Rules & Safety Guidelines

Safety is our top priority. To ensure a great day for everyone and to respect our local roads, please follow these guidelines:

Operator Requirements: All drivers must be at least 18 years of age and possess a valid driver’s license.
Speed & Spacing: Please maintain a safe following distance of at least two tractor-lengths. Follow the lead vehicle's pace.
Road Safety: We will be traveling on public roads. Stay to the right, follow all traffic laws, and use hand signals or blinkers when turning.
Passengers: Riders are permitted only if the tractor is equipped with a factory-installed buddy seat or if the participant is on an approved, secured trailer/wagon. Tractors equipped with a roll bar or cab require the use of seatbelts.
Alcohol Policy: No alcohol is permitted on the tractors or during the ride. We look forward to celebrating with you at the picnic afterward! Only 21+ years of age are permitted to drink.
Equipment: Ensure your tractor is in good working order. If you have a breakdown on the route, someone will be there to assist in getting you up and running or tow you home.
Waiver: All drivers must sign the event waiver and have liability coverage on their tractor. Ridn' for a Reason is not responsible for accidents occuring on the route.
Insurance: "Your $20 registration fee grants you an Annual Membership to Omro Ridn’ for a Reason Inc. This membership provides you with coverage under our event’s General Liability policy. Please note: This does NOT replace your personal liability insurance or cover physical damage to your equipment."

The day of the event, you must sign a waiver similar to the following:

Waiver and Release from Liability

Assumption of Risk: By signing this Waiver, I assume any risk and take full responsibility and waive any claims of personal injury, death, or damage to personal property associated with activities and events organized by Omro Ridn’ for a Reason Inc., its Directors and Officers (Carson Buttke, McCara Potratz, Derek Potratz), and the Property Owners of the event site.

Legal Rights: I understand and confirm that by agreeing to this waiver, I have given up considerable future legal rights. I accept this agreement freely, voluntarily, and under no duress. I certify that I am 18 years of age or older (or am the legal guardian of a minor participant) and am mentally competent.

Insurance Certification: I further certify that I possess a valid driver’s license and that any vehicle I operate during this event is covered by a current personal liability insurance policy (e.g., Farm, Homeowners, or Umbrella policy).

Final Agreement: My digital or physical signature is proof of my intention to execute a complete and unconditional WAIVER AND RELEASE of all liability to the full extent of the law.
