🚲🍑 SANFORD BICYCLE CLUB TAKES SAVANNAH! 🍑🚲
A Southern-Fried, Overnight Bicycle Adventure!
📅 Saturday & Sunday, December 12–13, 2026
📍 Savannah, Georgia
🚴 Historic Streets • Southern Eats • Pub Crawling • Two Days of Adventure!
Well, butter my biscuits, y’all! Sanford Bicycle Club is fixin’ to head north for a weekend of Southern hospitality, beautiful bicycles, historic streets, fantastic food, and maybe a few adult beverages along the way! 🍻
That’s right, we’re packing up the bikes and heading to Savannah, Georgia, for an OVERNIGHT bicycle adventure!
And here’s the sweet part: Savannah is only about a four-hour drive from Sanford! Just a little road trip separates us from one of the most beautiful and historic cities in the South.
🌳 SATURDAY: SAVANNAH ON TWO WHEELS!
We’re planning to leave Sanford at 7:00 AM sharp Saturday morning! Wouldn’t it be a hoot if we got ourselves a little bicycle convoy rolling up I-95 together? Cars loaded with bikes, good friends, and a whole lot of anticipation!
Once we arrive in Savannah, we’ll get settled, grab some lunch if time allows, and prepare for our afternoon adventure.
Our Saturday ride will begin in front of one of the big downtown hotels. Right now, we’re penciling in the JW Marriott Savannah Plant Riverside District as our meeting spot. It’s huge, right on the waterfront, and pretty darn hard to miss!
From there, we’ll saddle up for approximately 8–10 miles of leisurely exploring through Savannah’s gorgeous historic district.
And this ain’t just a pub crawl on bicycles, folks! We’re going to soak up some of the incredible history, architecture, and sights that make Savannah such a special place.
Some of the sights we’re hoping to pedal past or stop and admire include:
🏛️ The Mercer-Williams House: One of Savannah’s most famous historic homes, made even more legendary by Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil.
⛲ Forsyth Park Fountain: That magnificent, picture-perfect fountain surrounded by towering oaks and Spanish moss. You can’t visit Savannah without stopping here for a group photo!
🌳 Savannah’s Historic Squares: Beautiful little parks scattered throughout downtown, filled with monuments, fountains, history, and some of the prettiest scenery in the South.
⛪ The Cathedral Basilica of St. John the Baptist: A breathtaking Gothic-style cathedral that’s absolutely worth a stop.
🏘️ Jones Street: Often called one of America’s most beautiful streets, with its brick pavement, historic homes, and magnificent trees.
⚰️ A Historic Cemetery: We’re also hoping to work one of Savannah’s famous historic cemeteries into one of our rides! Colonial Park Cemetery, right in the historic district, would make a fascinating stop. Savannah has a wonderfully spooky side, and we might as well explore a little of it!
And of course, we’ll spend some time along River Street, with its old warehouses, cobblestones, riverboats, shops, and lively waterfront atmosphere.
Along the way, we’ll discover hidden gems, stop for photos, and naturally make a few strategic visits to Savannah’s famous pubs and watering holes. 🍺
A little sightseeing, a little history, a little pub crawling, and maybe a ghost story or two!
No racing. No rushing. No pressure. We’re on Savannah time, darlin’!
🤝 TWO BICYCLE CLUBS, ONE BIG ADVENTURE?
Now here’s something we’re especially excited about!
We’ve been in touch with Savannah Bicycle Club, and we’re talking about the possibility of joining forces for a group ride on one of the days!
How cool would that be?!
Imagine Sanford Bicycle Club rolling through Savannah alongside the local cycling crew, making new friends, swapping stories, and letting the hometown riders show us a little of their city!
Nothing’s finalized yet, but we’re hoping we can make it happen.
And who knows? If they’re a cool bunch, maybe we’ll invite them down to Sanford someday and return the favor! We can show them our beautiful Riverwalk, our favorite local watering holes, and how we do things down here in Central Florida.
Bicycles bringing people together across state lines. Now that’s what this club is all about! 🚲🤝🚲
🍗 SATURDAY NIGHT: LET’S EAT, Y’ALL!
Now, you can’t visit Savannah without enjoying some seriously good Southern cooking!
Saturday evening, we’ll try to get everyone together for a fantastic dinner somewhere in downtown Savannah. We’re talking fried chicken, shrimp and grits, Lowcountry cooking, fresh seafood, and all those delicious things that make Southern food worth traveling for.
We’ve got a few famous Savannah restaurants in mind, including:
🍽️ The Olde Pink House: A legendary Savannah restaurant serving Southern cuisine in a beautiful historic mansion.
🍤 Vic’s on the River: A wonderful waterfront restaurant known for Southern-inspired dishes and views of the Savannah River.
Nothing’s decided yet, but we’re going to find someplace mighty tasty! And afterward? Maybe a little more exploring, some nightlife, or a nightcap with friends.
🏨 WHERE ARE WE STAYING? LET’S HELP EACH OTHER OUT!
Here’s the deal, folks: there’s no official group hotel and no group rate.
Several of us have already booked our rooms, and wouldn’t you know it, we’ve all chosen different hotels!
The good news is that we’re all staying in downtown Savannah, within a few blocks of the waterfront.
So find yourself a place to rest your head that fits your budget! Fancy hotel, cozy little inn, or something simple and affordable. It’s entirely up to you.
Just try to stay within walking or biking distance of downtown and the riverfront so you’re close to all the action.
AND HERE’S WHERE WE COULD USE YOUR HELP! 👇
If you’ve already booked your room, drop a comment below telling everyone which hotel you’re staying at and approximately how much you’re paying per night!
That way, other club members can get a better idea of hotel prices, find something that fits their budget, and maybe even book at the same hotel as you.
Looking for a roommate to split the cost? Mention that in the comments, too! Maybe somebody else is thinking the same thing, and you can save a few bucks to spend on shrimp and grits instead!
No pressure to share your plans, of course, but the more we help each other out, the easier it will be for everyone to join the fun.
🌅 SUNDAY MORNING: ONE MORE RIDE BEFORE WE GO!
Now, we ain’t driving all the way to Georgia just to ride one day!
Sunday morning, we’ll saddle up again for another casual adventure before heading home.
We’re thinking about trying something a little different this time, possibly heading across the Savannah River to Hutchinson Island, directly across from historic downtown.
There’s even a free ferry that carries bicycles across the river! How cool would that be?
We could explore the other side, enjoy some beautiful views of Savannah’s waterfront, and maybe find ourselves a good breakfast or brunch before packing up and heading south.
Or perhaps we’ll explore another part of historic Savannah that we didn’t get to see on Saturday.
We’ll figure out the exact route as we get closer. That’s half the fun of an adventure!
🚗 LET’S GET OURSELVES A CONVOY!
Remember, we’re aiming to roll out of Sanford at 7 AM sharp on Saturday!
If we can coordinate a few vehicles, share some bike rack space, and travel together, all the better.
Imagine a little caravan of Sanford Bicycle Club bikes rolling north through Georgia. Now that’s a sight worth seeing!
Of course, you’re welcome to travel on your own schedule and meet us there.
🚲 WHAT KIND OF RIDING SHOULD YOU EXPECT?
This is a Sanford Bicycle Club adventure, y’all!
We’re talking casual riding, plenty of sightseeing, lots of stops, great company, and absolutely no need to break a sweat unless you want to.
Bring whatever bicycle you’re comfortable riding around town. Just remember, Savannah has some historic streets and uneven surfaces, so choose your trusty steed accordingly.
No drop. No pressure. No racing. Just good old-fashioned bicycle fun!
📣 ARE YOU COMING?
Here’s how we’d like everyone to RSVP:
👉 Hit the INTERESTED button if this sounds like your kind of adventure and you’re thinking about joining us.
👉 Hit that GOING button if you’re definitely coming! Please only select GOING if you’re committed to making the trip, so we can get a reliable head count and coordinate our plans.
And don’t forget to check the comments for hotel recommendations, room prices, potential roommates, and maybe even some carpool opportunities!
The more the merrier, and we’d love to see a whole bunch of Sanford Bicycle Club jerseys, weird bicycles, and familiar faces rolling through Savannah!
🍑 SO COME ON, Y’ALL!
Two days. Two wheels. One beautiful Southern city.
Historic mansions, magnificent fountains, moss-covered oaks, old cemeteries, cobblestone streets, fantastic Southern food, a few cold beverages, and a whole lot of laughs with your bicycle friends.
And maybe, just maybe, we’ll make some new bicycle friends from Georgia along the way!
Savannah is calling, and Sanford Bicycle Club is answering!
Pack your bags, load your bikes, and let’s go make some memories, sugar! 🚲🍻🍑
