Here are Colorado randos who've earned RUSA and ACP awards in 2017.
For most, you need to apply to be recognized, but you don't need to purchase the physical award. What's important is the goal and the accomplishment. For some, the physical award adds a nice momento.
Some are challenges within the current year. For others, you are allowed multiple years to earn. Others recognize achievement over a number of years.
We congratulate all these fellow randos for their persistence in achieving their goals!
You can see our cumulative awardees across the years here:
Super Randonneur · R-12/P-12 · R-5000 · Others

A Final Thought
RUSA has created these awards over time to give you more and more diverse goals to shoot for. Maybe you don't have the personal time to achieve K-Hound mileage, but have the grit to complete an R-12 ride each month for a year in hot and cold, sun and snow.
Set your own goals, and let your imagination and determination be your guides!
You can find details on each of these awards via the RUSA Awards page,
including all those who've applied for recognition.
Bonne route!
