Bikes, Brews, & Omelettes Two

A combined two hundred miles of bike routes, great local craft beer, and one giant omelette...what more could a cyclist ask for? The back-to-back Bayou Teche Brewing Bike Bash and Giant Omelette Celebration Ride join forces to form Bikes, Brews, and Omelettes Two, a weekend of cycling quite unlike any other. 

On Saturday, November 5, Arnaudville's Bayou Teche Brewery hosts the The Bayou Teche Brewing Bike Bash, where delicious craft beer, lunch and a Cajun Jam at Tante Marie, and a general good time awaits cyclists at the finish line, no matter how long their route. Check-in at 6:30 am at the brewery, start times beginning at 7:50 am with festivities extending into the afternoon and evening.

On Sunday, November 6, it's on to Abbeville for the second day of the Giant Omelette Celebration—featuring antique cars on display, live music—and the majestic procession of chefs, eggs, and bread to the twelve-foot skillet awaiting its five thousand egg fate. 

These non-competitive rides both offer various routes with distances from ten to one hudnred miles. This event is hosted by TRAIL, a non-profit organization dedicated to building and maintaining parks, paths and trails for hiking, walking, running, kayaking, biking, and canoeing. Tickets start at $40 for individual rides; combo registration deals and bike rentals are available. latrail.org/bbot.
