    Default Would you ride over this?

    If this bridge was wide enough, would you ride your Spyder over it? Me? Hells no! I would have a hard enough time just walking over it!

    Maybe "the motorcycle fool" was so terrified of heights, walking, or running wasn't a fast enough way across the bridge

    Default Maybe.....😲

    If it were wide enough for both pedestrians and the spyder....
    If the weight limitations were posted and considered the number of both on the bridge at one time...
    If the weather were perfect
    If I had a motivational speaker as a passenger
    and 🔥'll was frozen over.....

    Another video looks like it's allowed, but I can't interpret it:

    You're right though. If I was walking over it, it would piss me off seeing a motorcycle going over it.

    I'm not sure that I'd be able to walk across it.

    I get dizzy standing on a sidewalk curb and looking down at the street. Both videos show pedestrians just standing and looking at the view. Good for THEM...

    I'd ride the Spyder across it before I would that bike.

    Guessing started as a handicap ramp & Obviously a weight limit but no bilingual sign requirements or speed limits, did look like a small safety net on one side through the chain link. surprised of the two vids we don't see no one stopped to take a leak off the side(glad we don't but surprised all same)

    walk it yes , bicycle maybe, scooter no not with that foot traffic

    No. And that's a for sure.

    Speaking of bridges, we have a single lane wood bridge in my neighborhood. It goes over a fast running creek. I took the NTA group over it on the way to breakfast one morning. I got one comment about the nail heads sticking up.
