Platinum cyclists are those in the 102-mile distance and starting in 2023 in the 63-mile distance with extensive experience in riding in a pack/peloton. Cyclists must meet specific criteria to earn platinum designation and must attend a special meeting.  Visit the Platinum Designation information in the Rider Guide for more information including meeting times, how to get the pass required to enter the platinum corral on ride day, etc.
ALL PLATINUM PASSES EXPIRE AT 6:30am on ride day for the 102 mile and 8:30am for the 63 mile.  No exceptions.  Be in the platinum corral before 6:30am/8:30amor you will not be allowed to enter.  Opening ceremonies will have begun.  If you earned platinum, don’t waste it by being late.
