Your bike on a bridge pics

I wondered why the road signs said not suitable for motor vehicles, until I got to this bit

Farm access overbridge on the 'non-official cycle path' part of the Barnard Castle to Tebay railway. Between the long gone Tees viaduct and Lartington. Out on one of the 'heritage fleet' today. Scary brakes 😬.

Being "transported for life" could be quite handy: I'd like a taxi to work every day, please.

They're not set up exactly right, the pads are ancient and I'm used to hydraulic discs! Not the bikes fault. They were fine for most of the ride, except for the steep, dusty decent through the wood from Barnard Castle to the river. I walked some of it. If I was still as light as I was years ago they might have coped 😂.
