LA: Tag (2011)
I have braved the Super Dome, though I thought I heard automatic weapons fire while I was taking the pictures.
The new tag was one of the best rides I've had in a long time. I hadn't been on that particular road in at least 30 years. The only thing different from all those years ago was the lack of structures.

Mark, that tag in NO was moved by Jeff and Lynne. The new tag is out in the Basin, though yours is probably easier to find!!! Check post 14. I think you looked at the quote by Papa and thought that was the tag.

Aw crap. Don't tell my wife! I busted out 425 miles on these 3 tags, and I went to the wrong one...

Well, you won't have to go back into NO again to get it.

I know where it is......Man I wish I had my bike with me....
Mark, sorry for the confusion, we were glad to get out of NO when we were there. The new tag location is much less crowded........

Oh hell, you didn't do anything. I just didn't catch your post when you moved the tag. It's too bad, the new tag I picked out was an awesome ride through an old highway built in the 20's, basically unchanged in 30+ years, other than a lot of missing stuff from Katrina. I agree about getting out of NOLA. I remember being in the French Quarter as a kid with my grandpa. That's where I saw my first "pasties"; looking into a bar from the street, my grandpa laughing as we walked away.
Today, I wouldn't be caught anywhere near that scene past 8 in the evening, and never be in NOLA when something is happening in the dome.
Anyway, I guess I'm gonna have to ride to Shereburne WMA. As we say in unofficial correspondence, "Sierra Hotel"!

Nice tagging anyway!!
Here is my first try at the tag game. Took me a few Google searches to narrow down where the old tag was. Once I got that I decided to take a ride to find it. Ended up easier that I thought it would be to find once I got there. Hope I did it correctly.

Melvin, great tag. This is the first LA tag from someone actually from Louisiana. Glad to have you playing with us..........Jeff
Jeff commented on how LA riders were not participating, so here you go Jeffery.
Good luck, this one may be a bit difficult.

Here you go the LA tag is moved again. Mike, you are right about LA Hwy 77 it is a nice ride with a lot of turns and good scenery. Jeff, your also right about the purpose of tag being getting to ride interesting roads, and see cool locations. I probably would not have rode on Hwy 77 if it were not for the tag game. It was well worth it. Hwy 22 is also a nice ride

Ok Melvin! I see you like Hystorical Markers. Cool. If I had known yesterday, I could have moved it again. Oh wait, that is my bike in that picture. Close anyway.
Glad you liked the roads.

Old tag was in Ponchatoula. New tag is way down south. It would have went farther south, but flooding from the Mississippi covered the road and I was forced to turn around.
Whoever goes and gets this next beware: Plaquamines Parish Sheriff's Department loves laser.

Louisiana tag moved. Good ride but it was hot. Rode the Goldwing because my ST1300 was apart for Farkling

Excellent Tag! There's some great reading behind that marker.
