K11Martin,

Great pictures- must have been an unbelievable ride.

I saw a television program about its construction. Quite the project.

Here are the end views of a few covered bridges in my area.





These were taken on a Ducati shop ride in '08. This year I rode my son's Monster on the covered bridge ride.

Since Tiff resurrected the thread, a few images from the family ride- home to Mt Desert Island (Bar Harbor, Maine, USA) and back home a few days later.

We parked the bikes and rode the elevator up one of the towers- this was our view.



Us parked under the old bridge



And since I didn't get a picture of the bridge itself, the State of Maine will have to help me. The old bridge, no longer used, is in the backround.

Our first multiple day trip- Jen was 22 and Johnnie 19 at the time. They rode very well. Jen was concerned since at the time she was on a "Ninja" 250. Now she is on a Kaw ZX6R and has more HP than our brick. Uh oh....... Smile

Tokyo Gate Bridge is located at Tokyo bay. This bridge has just opened this February.



2 year's ago, I saw the part of bridge beam on the ground. It was very huge. After assembling the bridge beam, it was moved to this point with huge crane barge.

 

If you have the chance to come to TOKYO, you can see from airplane for Haneda airport (HND), like a San Mateo bridge of San Francisco Bay.
