LEWES- A unique celebration of cycling, craft beer, and community will take place in Lewes this Father’s Day weekend, June 13–14, as Priority Bicycles teams up with Dogfish Head Brewing for the “Good Vibes & Bike Rides” event based at the Dogfish Inn.

The two-day experience is designed to bring locals and visitors together for guided bike rides, outdoor activities, and signature Dogfish Head brews, all set against the backdrop of Delaware’s coast.

“We’re thrilled to celebrate our third year of partnership with our friends at Dogfish Head and continue sharing the joy of cycling with new adventurers,” said Connor Swegle, Co-Founder and CMO at Priority Bicycles.

The festivities kick off Friday night with a pizza party and fireside conversation featuring Dogfish Head founder Sam Calagione, members of the Priority Bicycles team, and representatives from the Sussex County Land Trust. The evening will also include a raffle for a Priority Bicycle, with proceeds benefiting the land trust.

Saturday’s main event, the “Bikes & Beers” ride, offers 15-, 30-, and 45-mile routes beginning and ending at the Dogfish Head Milton Brewery. After completing their rides, participants can enjoy a post-ride festival with live music, food trucks, and craft beer tastings. Riders aged 21 and over will receive a commemorative pint glass and two beers.

The Dogfish Inn will host participants for a two-night stay during the event, with discounted registration, branded merchandise, and designated parking included as part of the weekend offerings.

Whether you’re an avid cyclist, a beer enthusiast, or looking for a Father’s Day weekend experience, organizers say the event promises a memorable way to kick off the summer season.
