The bridge to Sanibel Island is probably the same height, to accommodate ocean traffic, but the flat part is much shorter, so only 2 miles? I also felt like it would be easy to flip over the rail on a windy day, Not my picture,

We started riding and because it's one-way, no turning back of you're a wimp, It was OK. Cars are 45 mph, I believe, Only one biker has ever been knocked off the causeway, as far as anyone knows, Was not looking forward to crossing it back, but it was uneventful.

I don't see why not as long as it's legal for bicycles to be on that bridge. The only other issue would be is there a wide enough berm you can ride on so cars can pass you, if not that could be a consideration if it's a heavily traveled bridge, only because some dope doing 14 mph on a 55 mph bridge holding up traffic for 7 miles is a bit frustrating to motorists, and they could get quite angry, and road rage with a car vs a bicycle...well, I don't think I have to explain how that would turn out.

What would be nice is if they opened the OLD 7-mile bridge to only pedal powered (e-bikes are ok) vehicles. It would require much less maintenance than the one for the cars/trucks. :)

Hehe... :roflmao2:

The old bridge is there, but - at least when I rode it a few years ago - there's a gap at the channel. I presume the new bridge has higher shipping clearance than the old bridge, resulting in that section being removed. It would be great if they'd connect that somehow for bikes, but it would be a significant structure to get up high enough for shipping.

When I rode this, my buddy was maybe 1/4 mile ahead of me but he took the old bridge thinking it went through. After that he was a long way behind lol.

huh?
