Humpback Bridge update?

[Dirt]

I’m on a recumbent trike until my shoulder gets more strength back. I rode the Hump bridge a week or so ago. Walking or carrying the trike isn’t much of an option. I just waited till I had room to roll across it without annoying too many people. The chicanes are quite a bit of fun on the 3-wheeler. Good opportunity to lift a wheel and ride it like a bike.

Honestly it is about the same width as the underpass that goes under Memorial bridge. Problem is that if you get it wrong, you’re face to face with oncoming traffic on GW Pkwy.

I’m heading south to Alexandria on my commute home tonight. I’ll report on how fat it is.

I rode the humpty bridge on the way home yesterday and it is still narrow. There’s about 8″ of path on the bridge that my trike doesn’t take up. Interestingly, I had someone try to pass me as I was going over the bridge. He finally decided that he could wait until the chicane to pass me…. and once we were rolling on the trail again, I passed him because he was moving slower than I was. People are morons.
