Dumbarton on Wikipedia

Didn't know there was a sizable Dumbarton entry on Wikipedia! Looks like the original bridge (remains can be seen as the frontage road ending in the fishing piers) was built in 1927. It was the first bridge over the bay. It was, in fact, a drawbridge, which makes sense cause those fishing piers are way, way lower than the current bridge.

joel- i love the new theme of this blog. maybe you can do some interviews with random people you don't know and see what they have to say about the d-bridge.

That's basically the plan. Get pics of the bridgers and years they've been doing it. Strange stories, riders to steer clear of (there are some)
