Is there a safe sidewalk that is safe to walk the bike over to Brigantine. I don't mind walking for safety sake. (note the use of the word safe 3 times in the sentence :)).<br /><br />Great article! I can't believe someone took the time to spell this out.<br /><br />Now I just need to find someone with a boat to get me from Brigantine to Holgate Marina. :) Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03585757872819802989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37712842.post-15429127234185870152016-07-29T15:56:03.317-04:002016-07-29T15:56:03.317-04:00I just finished a week in Brigantine.

The drawbridge which carries route 30 must be walked on the "sidewalk" area on the other side of the guardrails. Don't even think of doing that drawbridge in the travel lane. It is obvious that whatever engineer put this together thought nothing - zero - about anything other than motor vehicles.<br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00704614626409474505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37712842.post-33643567324200433072016-03-21T23:35:26.619-04:002016-03-21T23:35:26.619-04:00I biked to Brigantine from Barrington over the sum...I biked to Brigantine from Barrington over the summer. If you take the White Horse Pike to Huron Ave there is an OK shoulder, but then once you get to the causeway into Brigantine things get tricky. The way there I just rode the sidewalk, and the way back there is no sidewalk on the opposite side (WTH?) so I just stepped on the curb while I walked my bike on the side of the road next to me. While I would normally just ride the very right of lanes like this, the speed limit is blown out of proportion and I would practically be yearning to die right there on the spot.<br /><br />Don't bike over the bridge unless you are super alert.Ronald Appetitenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37712842.post-8850766827469846382015-01-19T22:48:43.297-05:002015-01-19T22:48:43.297-05:00Glad we could help even if it helped you to decide...Glad we could help even if it helped you to decide NOT to bike there.Andrew J.
