What happens when a 500-year-old idea from Leonardo da Vinci’s sketchbook meets a mountain bike trail in Waterloo Region? You get the Da Vinci Bridge!Join members of the Hydrocut Trail Team to discover how Leonardo’s ingenious self-supporting bridge design was reimagined in wood and brought to life in the Hydrocut, one of Waterloo Region’s favourite mountain biking destinations.
Learn how a team of volunteers, engineers and local partners took inspiration from Renaissance-era engineering to create a bridge that spans a creek and welcomes thousands of riders each year.
It’s a story of big ideas, creative problem-solving and community collaboration, proving that a great idea can travel a very long way, from Leonardo’s sketchbook to a forest trail 500 years later.
Admission to the dialogue includes admission to see THEMUSEUM's latest exhibition, Leonardo da Vinci - 500 Years of Genius.
