The Prairie Cycle Club email group on Google allows those interested in cycling in Champaign and surrounding counties to receive announcements about

• PCC and other cycling events/rides (information about which will usually also be available on this website)
• show-and-go rides, and
• cycling related issues

During the cycling season, we expect 3-10 messages weekly

All new PCC members, will receive an invitation to join the email group.

Non members of the email group can subscribe to the PCC email group (or existing group members can change their email receiving preferences) by visiting https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/prairie-cycle-club/join.

Those without a Google email account, in order to become a group member, will be guided through creating a Google account with their existing email.

Existing group member wanting to read past messages or to change email receiving options, should visit the group at http://groups.google.com/group/prairie-cycle-club?hl=en

Only PCC members can post messages. To post to this group, send an email to prairie-cycle-club@googlegroups.com

PCC email group members can choose to receive group emails as follows

• no emails from the group (in which case group messages can be read by logging into the group)
• at most one email daily containing all messages of the past 24 hours (the default setting for new members of the email group who don’t specify otherwise)
• at most one email daily containing abridged versions of all messages of the past 24 hours
• every message as it is posted (This option enables one to get late changes to PCC events and to find out about show-and-go rides organized on short notice–typically several hours to several days.)

One can also join the mailing list of the local bicycling advocacy organization, Champaign County Bikes, by visiting their web site and/or click here to sample and subscribe to their once or twice monthly newsletters.
