Permanents

            As explained on the RUSA website, “a Permanent is like a brevet but you can ride it any time, not just on one specific date. Like brevets, routes can start and finish in the same location, but they can also run point-to-point, and can be any distance of 200km+ (100-199km for a Permanent Populaire). Permanents are open to any RUSA member. They can be ridden alone or with a group. Permanent rides in the US are validated by RUSA and do not count toward any ACP awards or PBP qualifying, but a Permanent can count toward your yearly RUSA brevet kilometer totals. To learn more, go to the Permanents FAQ.”

            In the South Central Florida Region, we have several fine Permanent Routes.  For more information on theses routes and routes in other parts of the country, please visit RUSA’s Permanent Search Page.

            Running a permanent route is a great way to help promote randonneuring in your area.  If you’re interested in putting a route together, read RUSA’s Rules for Permanent Owners or contact the for more information.
