All brands of motorcycles are welcome! Comprised of just under 40,000 members and over 200 chapters, STAR recognizes safety as a first priority.
The STAR community is a mix of riders with varied riding experiences. Chapter rides follow the highway laws and limits, to keep everyone as safe as possible. We want to see you back safely for the next ride.

Southwest Territory, Illinois #275
Our official charter from Star Touring and Riding Association was granted on May 14, 2003.Our chapter meetings are generally held the first Saturday of every month at 9:30AM at Collinsville Yamaha in Collinsville, Illinois. Occasionally, we have to reschedule our meetings to accommodate holidays. Our meeting location and meeting times will always be posted on our calendar. Meetings are followed by a group ride when weather is permitting. We also have monthly planned rides led by a member of the chapter.
Chapter 275 consists of a wonderful group of people, young and old, who enjoy good riding, good food, and best of all family and friends.
Of course, we have a sense of humor, just look at our member profiles. Just Kidding.
