Tulsa Gentleman: Sunday Bridges - New River Trail Bridges

Sunday Bridges - New River Trail Bridges

The recent improvements to the Arkansas River Trail between East 11th Street to East 71st Street include 2 handsome bridges. This one carries pedestrians and bicycles over the drainage channel at East 61st Street, Another nearly identical bridge crosses Crow Creek where it empties into the Arkansas River just south of East 31st Street. The hardy gentleman braving 104F heat was wisely drinking lots of water.

The cyclist may be wise to drink water, but I have to question his decision to be out in 104 degree heat in the first place.; Sunday, July 17, 2011

Yogi♪♪♪ said... [Reply to comment]: I really like the new trails and bridges. Hard to believe that runners, walkers, cyclists all shared a narrow strip of asphalt not too long ago.; Sunday, July 17, 2011
Francisca said... [Reply to comment]: It IS a handsome bridge, but with similar temps here, you wouldn't see me bicycling over it.; Sunday, July 17, 2011
