Bikes and Bridges

Nope. Way too jankey. I shall walk, thanks

There's a little bridge like that, but in better shape, on a trail I ride sometimes.
The problem is, that it's around a blind down hill curve, screened by bushes - The first time I rode it, guess where I went

When a river runs through town (Dartford, Kent) a few bridges are inevitable. Arthritic knees playing up this morning so a local potter fitted in well.

Just a couple more. The first is in the town park, a replica, possibly reduced scale, of the medieval town bridge.
The second pic has 2 bridges - the brick railway bridge at the back and the wooden footbridge in front.

I've heard that the N and S towers of the QE2 bridge (Dartford crossing) are about a centimetre further apart at the top (137m) than at the bottom because of the curvature of the earth. I also heard back in the day that the new bridge would relieve congestion at the crossing.

The old Bridport to Maiden Newton rail line, now becoming a cycle route, many bridges along it here is one....

QE2 Bridge, Dartford crossing in the mist and rain this morning. The bicycle isn't quite retro, though it is steel framed, rim braked and certainly not electric gears (single fixed) so I'm hoping it might scrape by. I bought it new as a semi disposable winter hack, Fuji Track Classic, around £350 some 12 years ago when I retired, but it's so comfortable it's become my all year favourite with my real retro bicycles saved for sunny dry treats.
