MGR 2020 will have a bit of a different feel, but all the same fun!
This year participants from all over will pledge to bike, walk, run or roll a certain amount of miles from October 1 to October 31. At the same time, participants will set personal and team fundraising goals to support Bike Walk Savannah’s crucial work in the Greater Savannah area.
Whether you are a casual cyclist or runner or an avid enthusiast, Moonlight Garden Rides is a great way to connect with the Savannah community. You can choose to fundraise and earn great perks for reaching your goals, or make a donation on behalf of yourself or a loved one. More information.

Wednesday Walks
Staying physically active is important for both physical AND mental health, and is especially important during the COVID-19 pandemic. That’s why we’re encouraging everyone to get out for a walk around their neighborhood or yard! Tune in on Wednesday for a prompt of something to share from your adventure, and take photos to share your walk. Make sure to tag Bike Walk Savannah and #BikeWalkSAV #WednesdayWalks.
Bicycle and Pedestrian Friendly Driver Webinar
On Thursday, May 21, Bike Walk Savannah will host a Bicycle and Pedestrian Friendly Driver webinar. This webinar will delve into the laws pertaining to people biking and walking and how the design of our streets makes them safer for all users. Participants who take a short quiz at the end of the webinar will receive a certificate of participation.
Eighth Annual Matt’s Moon River Cruise
The Eighth Annual Matt’s Moon River Cruise, presented by the Law Office of Joseph J. Steffen, will be held virtually May 21-26 — from wherever you are.
The event is named in memory of Matt Kohler, who was hit from behind by a driver on July 26, 2012 while riding his bike on U.S. Highway 80 in Bloomingdale.
On Friday, May 22, we will post a variety of routes ranging from 4-25 miles for all to enjoy in Savannah. These rides do not need to be completed on Friday — rather, they are a suggestion of routes to take at your leisure. Participants are encouraged to post photos on social media, tagging @BikeWalkSav, #MMRC8, #BikeWalkSAV, #BikesUnite. Want to share your route from outside Savannah?
