Bridges, we don't need no stinking bridges!
This is one of the most unique features for bike riders that I've ever come across, in any city. And it happens to be right here in MKE. This bridge spans the Milwaukee River near the Water Street/Downtown area. On one end is a condo/nightlife neighborhood, near Brocach, with a sweet session spot for skateboarders and on the other end is the entrance to Lakefront Brewery (great weekly combo fish fry and brewery tour) and more condos, with a good connected path.
What's unique is that his bridge had been hung directly under the bridge used by automobiles. The bridge for the cars isn't too bad to cross, but the one below for bikes and pedestrians is much nicer... and, I suspect, a lot less lethal.
These kinds of features in any city make cycling more accessible and fun.
