About the event
Prairie Pedal is an annual fall fundraising event for the Macon County Conservation Foundation. All proceeds support natural areas and wildlife in Macon County, Illinois.
Enjoy a 20 mile, 40 mile, or 62 mile ride through quiet country roads and have a chance to discover the vibrant prairie grasses, wildflowers, and diverse wildlife as we ride to support local natural areas and wildlife!
After the ride, enjoy a delicious chili lunch (with vegetarian option) and an assortment of refreshments. All routes begin and end at Rock Springs Conservation Area, 3939 Nearing Lane, Decatur, IL. This year, Door 4 Brewing Co. will be joining us once again with beer for purchase. There will also be pickle shots available at rest stops and Rock Springs Conservation Area for $1 each.
