Cyclists can support local wildlife and natural areas by taking part in this year’s Prairie Pedal bike ride on Sunday, September 28. Hosted by the Macon County Conservation Foundation, the annual fundraiser starts and ends at Rock Springs Conservation Area in Decatur. Riders can choose from 20, 40, or 62-mile routes along scenic country roads.
Early bird registration is $35 through August 31 and includes a giveaway, stocked rest stops, support vehicles, and a chili lunch. The price goes up to $40 starting September 1. Start times vary by route, and all rides must be completed by 1 p.m. Proceeds go toward protecting wildlife and natural areas in Macon County.
