Most of you know about RANDON—the online randonneur list found at http://lists.topica.com/lists/randon—but did you know that there are a number of local lists flourishing around the country? "These lists are good place for arranging car pools and training rides, or for exclaiming about all the altitude gain on the brevet," says RUSA president Bill Bryant. An informal survey by RUSA board member Mark Thomas turned up several sites (see table). In addition, there are some local cycling lists that are not dedicated to randonneuring but are used by local randonneurs to exchange information.
