Tybee to Savannah Trailblazers’ Ride
November 9, 2009
Ride from Tybee to Savannah! Do you ever wonder why it has to be so dangerous to ride a bike between Tybee and Savannah? Wouldn’t it be great to have safe access, and to open up a whole new outlet for locals and tourists to make day trips between Savannah and the beach on a bike? We think so, and we hope you can join us on this ride to highlight the need to make a safe connection. We’ll ride from Tybee City Hall to Savannah with a police escort to keep us all safe. Route covers 22 miles including a quick spin around Tybee to see the sights. Read more
