· What is a Permanent? - A Permanent is like a brevet, but you can schedule with the organizer when to ride it. Some Permanents are offered year 'round; others only during specific seasons. The same rules apply as for riding a brevet, and you have your brevet card validated at checkpoints along the route. Permanents are rides for individuals or small groups of riders. They should not become quasi-brevets.
	· Procedures to Ride a Permanent - Each Permanent has an "owner" (Organizer), to whom you apply to ride the Permanent on a given date. The Organizer may or may not be the local Regional Brevet Administrator. The Organizer may apply a fee to cover costs. After you complete your ride, you return your brevet card to the Organizer, who submits your result to RUSA for certification.
	· Before You Ride - Look over the route information below, including the links to map, cue sheet and "info" - important: the info link displays the fee, estimated climbing, seasonal availability, whether the route can be ridden in reverse, and whether it's a free-route permanent.
	· RUSA Membership - You must be a RUSA member to ride a permanent. RMCC membership is not required, but encouraged as always.
	· Awards - Riding a Permanent counts toward RUSA distance awards and the RUSA R-12 award (riding a US randonnée of 200km or longer each month in a year). Permanents do not count towards ACP awards or medals.
	· Using Permanents as Qualifiers - Some organizers of 1200km Randonnées (such as the Cascade 1200 or the Colorado Last Chance) may allow you to use Permanents to satisfy part of the qualifying requirements.
	· UMCA Year-Rounder Challenge - Permanents count towards UMCA Year-Rounder Challenge credit as Personal rides.
	· More Info and More Permanents - See RUSA Permanents Info for full details on Permanents in general, and RUSA Permanents Search for a full index of all RUSA Permanents.
	· Rules - Please read the rules carefully before riding. You may also check out the waiver which you will need to sign before riding. Bonne route! .

How to Register - To register for a Permanent, select one from the list below and contact its Organizer. The Organizer will agree on a riding date with you, and send you application and waiver. You will need to submit the application and waiver along with any fee. The Organizer will then supply you a brevet card, cue sheet, and other materials. If you are not a RUSA member, you will need to join RUSA prior to your ride.
