4th Annual Savory Cycle

Enjoy the freedom of the bicycle, the beauty of the bluegrass, and the bounty of the farmers; all while witnessing the skills and knowledge of some of Kentucky’s most talented chefs. 

There are two routes, a 25 mile ride to Woodford Reserve and back, and a metric century (62 miles) with options for short cuts.

The ride begins and ends at Holly Hill Inn located in Midway, Kentucky.

Have a friend that doesn’t want to ride? Worry not: there is a dinner-only ticket option for the finale, which will feature music, dinner, and good times. Chef Ouita Michel and Chef Nat Henton are developing a fabulous menu for the event! 

Savory Cycle is presented by Green’s Toyota of Lexington, and is completely volunteer-run, and all profits go to Broke Spoke Community Bike Shop.
