Surely I'm not the only person who walks by the Boulder Bridge and thinks about Evil Knievel and old Burt Reynolds movies...

I don't know how big the gap is, but the current state of the bridge seems perfectly designed for a stunt of some sort.  You've got the gap over the tracks and the solid part of the bridge on either side forming the "ramps."

Heck, I'm surprised someone on a crotch-rocket hasn't tried it yet.

Perhaps we need to let Robbie Knievel know about it...just in case.  If all those thousands of people came to Tulsa just to see a rusty old car dug up out of a hole in the ground, surely they'd come to see a guy try to jump a bridge on a motorcycle!
