High Trestle Trail bridge

Madrid, Iowa (okay, I'll give Woodward a little bit of credit here)
now has the 5th highest and longest bike bridge in the world
(despite the Des Moines Register stating that the bridge is
"west of Ankeny"--give me a break!).
These pictures were taken from the Highway 210 bridge upstream
from the High Trestle Trail bridge.
In the second picture you can see how the metal structures are
all turned at slightly different angles. Going across the bridge,
it seems as if you're going through a rounded tunnel.
You'll have to come check it out for yourself if you
haven't been here. It's worth the trip.
