Is anybody up for a 5 bridges run? I was thinking of putting something together for a Sunday in mid-January.
For those who haven't heard the term, a 5 Bridges run is a run that goes over all 5 major bridges over Tampa Bay.
I envisioned a route that would start at the usual TBV start place behind Hooters in Brandon, head south down 301 or 75, and back north over the Skyway (bridge 1). Then up 275 to Gandy and east over Gandy Bridge (bridge 2). Next north up Dale Mabry to 275, and west over the Howard Franklin (bridge 3). Northwest on Roosevelt past St Pete/Clearwater airport, then north across Bayside Bridge (bridge 4). East on US60 and over the Courtney Campbell (bridge 5), and finish at one of the eating/watering holes at Rocky Point or therabouts.
No door prizes, raffle tickets, dash plaques, etc. Just a nice drive.
Anybody else up for this?
