[edit] Organizations

Prairie Cycling Club http://www.prairiecycleclub.org/

One of the most social groups of people on the prairie. Don't believe me? Come and see for yourself! Of course there are the uber-cyclists who ride 60 miles each day at an average speed of 19mph - hardcore riders that deserve some serious respect. But there are many more of us who go on the Saturday morning saunter - 20 miles averaging about 11mph - chatting the entire way, stopping for doughnuts and coffee in Philo or Sydney or wherever the wind takes us. If saunter is too slow, and you aren't equipped with rocket boosters, there are groups riding at speeds/distances in between too.

[edit] Businesses

Body-N-Sole http://www.bodynsolesports.com/ Large inventory, reasonable prices, competent staff. They'll actively try to find something that will work for you, and seem to be pretty honest. (They've discouraged me from getting shoes that didn't have enough cushioning or stability. --wayward) Stock Asics, Brooks, Saucony, Nike, Adidas, Mizuno, and some New Balance.

Heel to Toe / New Balance Urbana Large selection of New Balance shoes. People there also seem to be knowledgeable and competent.

UIUC Masters Team http://www.campusrec.uiuc.edu/aquatics/master.html YMCA Masters Team (Don't know much about this. It's apparently small and expensive. --wayward)

[edit] Businesses

Body-N-Sole http://www.bodynsolesports.com/ Good selection of "grab bag" Speedo, Tyr, and Nike suits for a lot less than the full retail price. Also carries goggles, caps, and various toys.
