Super Randonneur Medal In 1952, the Audax Club Parisien created an honorific recognizing randonneurs who had completed, in the same year, the series of brevets of 200k, 300k, 400k and 600k. This honorific is called the Super Randonneur Award. RUSA members may request a medal commemorating their accomplishment by submitting the request form shown below. This request form, filled out correctly and including verification numbers for the brevets, should be submitted with payment to RUSA, which will collect the forms and forward them to the ACP person responsible for Brevets de Randonneurs Mondiaux. One or more of your SR-qualifying brevets may be ridden outside the US, but in any case you will need to include the certificate numbers on your application. Events can be ridden out of order, but longer event substitutions are not allowed, as they are for PBP qualifying. The medal design will be changed every Paris-Brest-Paris year. (For riders who ride PBP, applying and being accepted for PBP gets them an SR award. The ACP gives the SR medal to entrants when they check-in in Paris, so there is no need to apply to RUSA. For other riders earning an SR medal during a PBP year, they should apply in the normal fashion listed above.)

NOTE: The Super Randonneur Award is an ACP Award, and RUSA is the intermediary for American randonneurs and randonneuses who want to earn it. The ACP assumes the randonneuring season is done by September and wants the paperwork for the season wrapped up by then. However, there are some BRM events in the US which run later than that. Normally the ACP gives each medal to the specific person who earns it and does not make them available after that. RUSA does its best to obtain a few extra SR medals for RUSA members who do late-season events but cannot guarantee that they will get their medal. In any case, all Super Randonneur medal applications must be received no later than October 31st of the season the rides were done in. Super Randonneur medals are not available for rides done in earlier years.
