Given how cool they are and there is a lot of published info on them, I wanted to add them to my blog. I have ridden through all but 1 (Perkasie) on 2 wheels.
The Central Bucks Bicycle Club (CBBC) does an awesome ride through most of them every fall, thus I am familiar with their beauty and serenity.
The first in the series is Loux Covered Bridge.
The Loux Covered Bridge is one of the smaller covered bridges in Bucks County; you come upon it suddenly following Wismer Road as it bends and drops down to cross Cabin Run on the Bedminster/ Plumstead border. At short distance down stream this creek is crossed by Cabin Run Covered Bridge.
Location: Wismer Rd., Plumstead Twp.
Height Limit: 11 ft. Width: 15 ft.
Length: 60 ft. Weight Limit: 15 tons
History: BUILT of hemlock in 1874, you'll find this bridge is one of two bridges to span the Cabin Run Creek. Nestled in a scenic valley, it was built at the insistence of local residents who complained about the dangers of crossing the creek
