Beast Group Ride July 31 9am.

Postby lucky1 » Sun Jul 18, 2010 2:14 pm

Bramba will be holding a group ride at the Beast Sat. July 31, 2010 @ 9am. There will be an emphasis on quality of ride and fun... In other words you will not get left behind :mrgreen: . We may do a bit faster second lap for those interested. See directions below. Also link to the last group ride here: viewtopic.php?f=5&t=3619

Directions from B.R. to the W.F. Sports Park:
Take I-10 West to I-110 North. Follow 110N through Baton Rouge till it ends. Exit on 61 North (not 61N Business) and drive for about 30-40 minutes to St. Francisville.

Stay on 61N. Pass the main town intersection (Hwy 10 & Hwy 61) and keep going 1.4 miles (past the St. Francisville Inn on the Lake). Turn right at the banner on the right that says "West Feliciana Sports Park," under a liveoak (The town's second Mobil station is on the left). This will be West Feliciana Parkway. Follow the road down past a fire station and enter the park.

Look for the right turn sign (before the asphalt turns left) with a red arrow and the Beast Trail logo on it and follow the signs down a gravel road to the trailhead. Park under a large pecan tree.

If you normally take I-110 to Comite, it's only like 20 minutes further to the beast.
btw, i'm out for 31st.

I am interested and I should be off that weekend. If I am able, I plan on being there. I have not been to this trail yet so it will be something new for me.

I'm planning to be there, if I can talk my wife into spending the day in St. Francisville. I hope that "you will not get left behind :mrgreen:" includes old, slow guys like me.

Conrad - tell her to check out www.stfrancisvillefestivals.com There is a "Hummingbird Celebration" going on July 30 and 31st. I was planning on attending but am now thinking about doing this ride instead.

The beast doesn't make you blow up, it makes you throw up. :twisted:

I may show for this one. I'd like to see if other people suffer as bad as I do. Also, I found a plug wrench for a chain saw out there the other day. I assume it belongs to Lynn?

You guys really make this ride sound enticing. Since tomorrow will be the hottest day in July, is there a chance we will melt before we throw up?

Yes, thank you, I'd appreciate it if you put it behind the trailhead sign.
