I'm looking at a bike route that would cross a narrow wood bridge, the kind where the deck is built of 2x8s that run the length of the bridge (Westham Island Bridge in Delta, BC if anyone knows it.) The slats look like they're right up against each other - ie, no gaps between them. It's about 400m long (1400 ft for you imperial people.) I'm using my tri bike, which has 700x28 tires.
That said, I'm not a good bike handler. Should I even try to bike this is or are wood slat decks a total no-go for cyclists?
