I'm planning on going to the Taco Run on the 22nd. can I ride into Oklahoma Friday night and still get the Taco Run cert? Or do I have to arrive within X hours of the event starting?

It doesn't. Can I finish my ride in on the 21st and still get the taco run cert? Or does it have to end on the 22nd? If so, is 12:01 AM on the 22nd acceptable?

StormRider... there is wide latitude here. From the posted guidance "By riding an IBA certified ride in connection with the 2023 Annual Taco Run, this earns you an IBA Annual Taco Ride certificate." Key is 'in connection with' Examples: A rider can ride 1000 plus miles to the ATR on Friday and attend it on Saturday; can ride 1000 plus miles on Saturday and during this ride attend the ATR; or attend the ATR on Saturday and ride 1000 plus miles back home on Sunday... This said, there is no requirement that your attendance at the ATR has to be during your IBA ride. Hope this helps.
