We're doing a 3000 mile trip this summer and will be returning to Florida down the east coast. We are thinking of going "over/under" on the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel.

Watched a You Tube Video and now I'm not so sure. Anyone ever ride on it?

 

I have never been on it on a motorcycle but have been on it many times in a car or truck. It is a wonderful experience and a beautiful place to visit. My concern would be when you get to the Hampton Roads side and 64, it is always a mess until you get to Williamsburg.

 

Sure, it's a nice route. For a few minutes you actually can't see either horizon and the tunnels are easy. $13 to cross last time I did it (2014.)

 

Lived in that area for ten years when I was active duty.............Been across that many times in vehicles and on bikes. Dont sweat it, its a good ride. Make sure you go down through the Outer Banks of NC as well.........Two ferry rides you'll do that are awesome.

 

I would jump at the chance. I've crossed it many times but only in a chemical tanker. It's a must see. Incredible feat of engineering and the views are breath taking. I'm dying to go on the bike. It is a little congested on the South side. The Delmarva peninsula is nice. Going through tunnels out at sea is awesome and there's a restaurant on the South tunnel entrance.

 

As I remember from 1977....pretty cool ride

 

Great ride and views. +1 on south side traffic.

 

I lived on the Eastern Shore (Quinby) and was based in Norfolk and Virginia Beach. I crossed it too many times to recall and even sailed over the tunnel part on the USS Guam and USS Nashville. I crossed it back in 1993 on my Softail and got salt sprayed on the lower sections due to large swells and cross winds.

 

Why not so sure? Awesome bridge, awesome experience.

 

I rode it in 2008. It was one of the highlights of the 4,000 mile trip.
