Journey beyond the vibrant streets of New Orleans into the rolling hills of St. Francisville, where we'll spend three days cycling beneath moss-draped oaks, along quiet country roads, and past historic estates and family farms that reveal a different side of Louisiana.

Just 90 minutes northwest of New Orleans and 20 minutes north of Baton Rouge, this charming Southern town offers the perfect blend of cycling, farm-to-table cuisine, history, and the soulful rhythms of Louisiana music.

And when the sun goes down, trade your cycling shoes for dancing shoes as we celebrate with an exclusive private evening featuring our legendary Grammy Award-winning singer and songwriter and his band! This evening is our signature Louisiana experience for the 2027 Pedals & Jam season.

And the experience doesn't end there! Throughout the weekend, we'll bring Louisiana's rich musical heritage to life with unique experiences, local traditions, Louisiana meals, and a few surprises along the way.
