The 30A YOLO Bike & Beach Club has officially launched, bringing locals of all skill levels together for some laid-back exploration of South Walton’s natural habitats.

Group bike rides are free and take place every Saturday from 8:30 a.m. – 11:30 a.m.

Participants at the YOLO Bike + Beach Store in Gulf Place every Saturday morning at 8:30 a.m. The ride through the trails of Point Washington State Forest leaves at 9 a.m. All skill levels and bike brands are welcome (“ride what ya got!”). Even if you don’t want to ride, join in for coffee and fun!

Download the free 30A YOLO Bike and Beach Club App for iPhone/iPad and Android for exclusive membership perks.

Jeff Archer, CEO of YOLO Board, and Mike Ragsdale, founder of The 30A Company, came up with the idea for the club as part of the companies’ recent partnership.

Check out this interview with Archer and Ragsdale about the new club:

“We wanted to bring together a fun group of people who enjoy taking advantage of everything that South Walton has to offer,” said Archer. “It’s a really laid-back chance to hang out with old friends and to make new ones.”

“Some days we’ll explore nature trails, some days we’ll do a pub crawl or cafe tour; whatever the club wants to do,” said Ragsdale. “It’s almost like a mobile speakeasy.”

In better weather, the group organises Group paddles, which are also free to join.

The special mobile app (for iOS or Android) features club info, as well as access to official 30A YOLO Bike and Beach Club shirts and swag.

The 30A YOLO Bike and Beach Club is free to join, and it’s open to all skill levels. Watch 30A.com’s events calendar for weekly meeting dates, times and details.
