The American Randonneur Challenge (ARC) is a special award given by Randonneurs USA to any RUSA member who successfully completes in the same season two or more Randonneur Mondiaux 1200-kilometer or longer grand randonnées held in the United States. The ARC award can be earned only by riding the actual grand randonnée (1200km+) event, not as a 1000k and a 200k+ brevet sometimes offered alongside the grand randonnée.

RUSA congratulates the riders who earned the ARC award.

Awardees may optionally purchase the physical award. No application is necessary. The ARC is awarded automatically, usually within a month of completion of the final grand randonnée on the calendar.
