This form calculates the opening and closing times for RUSA-sanctioned permanents. The minimum and maximum speeds for permanents are constant for the duration of the ride. These are defined by the following table:

Event Distance (km)	Minimum speed	Maximum speed
100 - 699	15 km/hr	30 km/hr
700 - 1299	13.3 km/hr
1300 - 1899	12 km/hr
1900 - 2499	10 km/hr
2500 and up	200 km/day

STEP 1: Indicate the event distance, starting date, and starting time.

If you are submitting a permanent route for approval, check this box and omit the Starting Date and Starting Time below. This will generate a generic schedule in days, hours, and minutes of elasped time.

STEP 2: Choose units and output style.

Input distances are in:	miles	km
Display output distances in:	miles	km	both
Display output dates as:	MM/DD	DD/MM

STEP 3: Enter the actual distance to each checkpoint. The location field is optional; if entered, it will appear in the table generated.

STEP 4: Submit the form.

Notes:

If preparing a sample control card for approval, times are shown as Dd,Hh,Mm, where D, H, and M are the number of days, hours, and minutes of elapsed time from the start. Otherwise, times are shown in a 24-hour format; for example, 2:00 AM is shown as 02:00 and 5:45 PM is shown as 17:45.
It is assumed that all checkpoints are located within the same time zone.
The output is displayed as simple text for easy cutting and pasting.
