Concrete Bridge Climbing???

hey, so ive seen in a couple ads in different climbing mags where there is a guy climbing a route on plastic holds that have been glued or bolted to the bottom of a concrete bridge, and there are bolts that have been placed to lead the route.

So, my question is; did they have to drill holes for every hold as well? Or, is there a glue that they used?

i ask because there are a number of out of commission bridges around where i live, and if we could glue holds to the bottom of them, we'd have a prettty cool place to climb.

So, is there such? a glue?

Do a thread search for "adhesive" in the search box up in the right hand corner. That will get you there.
