Permanents in Southern Utah

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 they can be any distance of 200 km or more. 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 register to ride a permanent you must contact the permanent owner by email. They will provide you with the neccessary paperwork and information. After your ride you will submit your brevet card to the permanent owner and they will validate your ride. Remember, like any brevet you must follow the route guide and instructions precisely. You must also provide any required proofs (receipts, answers, etc.) and meet the time requirements. If you have additional questions about permanents you can go to the RUSA permanents FAQ page. There you will find everything you will need to know about permanents. We are working on developing several permanents in the southern Utah area but none are available yet. Check back periodically for any updates on these permanent routes.
