Okay, Class. Today’s letter is “B”. Name some popular B-words in New Orleans.
Annie: Beads!
Sally: Bon Temps!
Billy: umm…deBauchery?
Remember when B was for bikes? School’s back in session so remind yourself of a beloved pastime thanks to Joy Ride Bicycles. This new rental service will supply you with a sweet Globe cruiser for as little as 1 to 5 days of easy riding. The guy’s version comes with a rear rack and the gal’s bikes with a basket perfect for toting home Farmers Market groceries, stray kittens or candy from strangers. The best part: the bikes will be delivered to you and picked up from you anywhere in the city. Check out the rates and rules of the road.
If it’s been a while since you’ve two-wheeled it, just watch out for another B: Banana seat.
For those of you planning for a weekend picnic at City Park, you can now hook up with aJoy Ride bike on the spot from 11 a.m. – 6 p.m., on Saturdays and Sundays at the Boat House on Big Lake.
