This aint for ridin', it's for partyin'. I like to get stinkin drunk here about once per year while searching for live down and dirty blues bands. Also, Mud Island Amphitheatre is one of the best outdoor music venues in the US....just across the way from here.

Review:

Trails can be somewhat tricky. Traffic may be a problem as locals don't use turn signals etc. Technical sections such as traversing passed out wino can be challenging and may not be for the beginner or the unarmed. Stay in well lighted area's if riding at night(not recommended).

riding beale is like stepping into a piece of work from picasso's blue period .... once one gets over the depression of the blues the drunkereds and police hawgs make the riding more funnier ...
