Louisiana Historical Challenge

The Purpose of this challenge is to give chapter members the opportunity to ride and take in some historic sites in Louisiana. The chapter will not be sponsoring rides to the locations. The intention is to get members together and enjoy the ride together. Our Facebook page would be a excellent way to connect with other members. The member, or members who visits the most sites will be acknowledged at this years Christmas party.

Rules

  1. Ride to the town and take a picture in front of the location with your bike (if possible). Email the photo to Tracy at tdbfield68@aol.com and she will tabulate the results.
  2. Visit one or all locations listed with each town.
  3. One point will be awarded with each town visited.

This challenge will conclude on November 30, 2024
