Campaigners –

In memory of our friend Jerry Jaycox, SBC will lead a guided bicycle tour of the McQueen’s Island Rail Trail, Cockspur Island and the dikes surrounding Ft Pulaski, so be sure to bring a bike with fat tires. Jerry was a force to be reckoned with, and this was his favorite Wheelie, so of course we named it for him.

We’ll start and finish at the Fort Pulaski picnic pavilions. Fort Pulaski has generously offered free entrance to Wheelie participants — just let them know at the gate you have come for the ride! This is a unique opportunity to experience the fort’s history from a new perspective. The ride is approximately 10 miles, though there are opportunities to make it shorter (2 or 6 mile options). It’s a really fun ride, and as always, kids are welcome. Please plan to stick around after for the cookout in Fort Pulaski’s picnic area—burgers and dogs will be provided. Please bring a dish to share and BYOB. The more the merrier!
