Colorado Rando Awardees - 2021 Round-Up!

  Here are Colorado randos who've earned RUSA and ACP awards in 2021!

Once again this year, we recognize you, our friends, because you have pursued this or that challenge, and through commitment, persistence, and discomfort, have managed to achieve it!

2021 - Rebounding After a Difficult Year For a time through 2020, there were no events and perms to ride. We can happily see that things are pretty much back to normal in 2021, with plenty of new awardees and the usual overachievers!

For most of these awards, you need to apply to be recognized. You don't need to purchase the physical award. What's important is the goal and the accomplishment. For some, the physical award is a nice momento.

Some are challenges within the current year or a twelve-month period. Others recognize achievement over a number of years.

We congratulate our fellow randos for their persistence in achieving their goals!
