Baton Rouge Levee Bike Path Ribbon Cutting Ceremony

Saturday October 28th 9:00a.m.

River Road @ South Boulevard

Richy, is that the bike path shown in the photo on the linked site? It's got a dashed yellow line and lights lining it...

If that's the bike path, HOW impressive! Bossier has a bike path along its Red River levee, from the casino district all the way to CenturyTel Center, but it's pretty narrow and isn't very well-lit except where the little rest areas and parks are along the path.

Very nice! I miss the days of cycling and running for miles along the levee... makes me want to get back into that! :)

*Ice Skating at the RiverCenter Dec.21st-Jan.3rd

I love the name Miracle on Third Street! What a nice play on a very well-known movie title. :)

Sounds like a lot of Christmas-time fun.

Yeah Brian, it's pretty cool. Third Street just seems even more alive on that night. The area around the intersection of Third Street and North Blvd. is one of my favorite area's in Baton Rouge.

Thanks for that tip, Richy. I'm making note of that because I'm sure I'll end up staying at least one night in Baton Rouge sometime in the not-too-distant future.

That's really cool :thumbsup: What's the occasion Brian? Will you be stopping in BR on your way to New Orleans ??

Yeah, whenever I make it back down to New Orleans I've told my wife I'd like to stay at least 1 night in Baton Rouge. It's easy to just drive right through since it's so close to New Orleans, but I'd really like to explore Baton Rouge more.

That event has really grown over the years. When it first started, it was held at the LSU Fieldhouse, then it moved to the Atrium at the Belle of BR. Now they have had to move it to the RiverCenter because the crowd get's bigger and bigger every year.
