The Bonnet Carre Spillway is located southeast of New Orleans. You know that New Orleans is below sea level and when it floods there they turn on the huge pumps to pump out the water. Well, the spillway is where all this water will end up if it ever does flood. If I had to guess the spillway is way over 1000 acres. It has a bunch of dirt roads, sandy and dirt trails, mud boggin pits, and there is even a MX track. I haven't been there in a while. If it has been raining I wouldn't go cause it gets pretty nasty after a good rain. It's free and you must wear a helmet.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

You have to remember, they all complain about heat at Little Sahara. But its a different heat there. Dry heat. I would much rather have 105 with 30% humidity, than what we see 95 with 100% humidity.

Just thinking about it. Every major riding area in the country has an event weekend. FSW, Drag Race Wars, Ds Days,. Why dont we get something together for La. Dunes. Need to find a name for it to. Coona$$ Drag Fest?

No more like "Rough Riders Drag Fest".......The goal........ To stay on your bike with out getting thrown off by the rough A@# sand dunes...That does seem like a good idea I would be willing to help get everything together, just let me know!
