1 What is 'Scot-Cycling'?
'Scot-Cycling' is a group intended mainly for discussions of leisure
cycling, both onroad/touring and offroad/mountain biking.
Visitors seeking information to help plan cycling holidays in Scotland are
especially welcome to ask for advice here.
(However, please note this list is not particularly intended for
discussion of competitive or sporting cycling.)
2 How do I read and post to 'Scot-Cycling'?
Scot-Cycling is available either as a mailing list via email:
(See: <http://groups.yahoo.com/group/scot-cycling/> to (un)subscribe)
or as a newsgroup/"forum" through gmane:
at news.gmane.org
as gmane.culture.bicycle.scottish
(The following direct link adds the group in some common newsreaders:
<news://news.gmane.org/gmane.culture.bicycle.scottish>)
(See also: <http://news.gmane.org/gmane.culture.bicycle.scottish>)
NB: In order to post to the group through gmane, you must first subscribe
to the mailing list via YahooGroups (in 'no-mail mode') as above.
(Note that gmane and YahooGroups make archives of postings to the group
available to the public. As on any public group on the internet, you are
advised to post using a 'disposable' or 'time-limited' email address to
reduce the risk of spam: eg, if you have your own domain or subdomain,
create an email address of the form 'listsYEAR @ mydomain.dom' in
addition to your normal email address, and change this every year.
The email address you use to post to the group *MUST*, however, be valid
(and *must* be subscribed to the email list, even if only in 'no-mail'
mode). This is to prevent spammers from being able to post to the group.)

campaigning in Scotland, please see:
