We are the Houston, TX Chapter of Houston, TX. Our Chapter is a fully licensed charter of the “Star Touring and Riding Association.” Our Chapter was formed on February 2, 2002 and received its Charter #221 on March 13, 2002.
The Houston, TX Chapter of Star meets at 7:00PM, on the first Thursday of each month at Frank's Grill, 3807 Spencer Hwy, Pasadena, TX. Our Chapter rides are on the Sunday following the Chapter Meeting from 305 Spencer Hwy, Pasadena (Texas Yamaha) and on the second to the last Saturday of each month from 1660 FM 528, Webster (Texas Yamaha South). All Chapter rides are fair weather rides. Each ride will be pre-ridden by an authorized Chapter Representative. This entails route planning, gas, meal and destination stops. We are a family organization and all events are structured for family involvement and safety.
We take great pride in our Chapter’s safety record. All rides are structured around safe riding practices and continued rider education.

The Star Touring & Riding Association is a proud organization, steeped in tradition, camaraderie, and family values. Many of our members have elected to show their pride in membership by wearing the National Association colors (back patch and rockers). In order to establish a sense of uniformity, the Star Touring & Riding Association has established the following guidelines for wearing of patches.
The patches may be sewn on your jacket however the most popular choice has been to sew the patches on a black leather vest. The styles of vest may vary, but the most commonly used are unadorned by fringe, Conchos or additional coloring.
The large Star Touring & Riding patch is to be sewn on the back of the vest, centered, leaving enough room for the chapter rocker (approximately two inches tall).
The Chapter Rocker patch will be sewn directly beneath the large back patch. There must not be any gap between the large back patch and the chapter rocker. When done properly, the two patches will take on the appearance of one rocker.
The small arm patch should be sewn on the front of the vest over the left breast. Small rockers denoting your position within the Chapter (President, etc.) or bike names will be sewn under the small arm patch. Again, care must be taken to prevent gapping between patches.
No patch will be placed or manufactured to fit above the Star Touring & Riding Association logo. Star Touring & Riding manufactures wings that may be sewn above and/or below the large back patch. No other club patches may be worn on the Chapter vest without prior approval from STAR International.
The right side of the vest front may be used for the attachment of ride pens.
The following is a list of “official titles” used within the STAR Touring & Riding Association. All Chapters (old and new) must comply with their usage. There will be no exceptions.
