cross bridge cycling ends when sufficient calcium has been actively transported back into the SR (to allow calcium to unbind from troponin)
When British Major John Pitcairn arrived at Lexington, which was on the way to Concord, he found 70 American minutemen (actually, they were almost all farmers) in battle formation at the town square. He had been informed that the Americans had stored munitions in Concord and that Adams and Handcock were in Concord. Pitcairn ordered the Americans to disperse but when they didn't move after the second order to do so, someone fired a shot. It is not known if the shot was fired by Americans or British. The British easily cleared Lexington and marched on to Concord. He found more Americans arming the bridge into the town so Pitcairn order the British to return to Boston. All the way back to Boston, the Americans sniped at the British from behind trees and rocks, inflicting serious injury to the British troops. When the Redcoats reached Boston, 250 had been killed or wounded. Lexington and Concord are considered the first battles of the Revolution.
Before the Brooklyn Bridge was built, people could only cross the East River from Manhattan to Brooklyn and back by boat.
"Lexington" was not a team that was playing a game. When the shots were fired several of the 77 men in Concord died on the Lexington green. The British moved on to Concord where the battle at Concord Bridge took place, so there were two different battles. The British basically won the morning in Lexington, but lost the day at Concord and going back to Boston.

After the skirmish on Lexington Common, the British army proceeded on to Concord. At the Old North Bridge in Concord, a force of milita repelled the British army and the British began to retreat back to Boston.

According to family legend, it was my mother who won a contest that chose her to be the first person to cross the bridge. She told us that she skated across the bridge on roller skates from NY to NJ and back after the ribbon was cut.

I had to cross that bridge with a typical five axle unit back in May. Looking through my receipts, I see that it cost me $25.
Lexington and Concord are considered the first battle of the American Revolution. British General Gage learned that the colonists had stored supplies and ammunition at Concord, MA, some 20 miles from Boston. On 19 April 1775, he sent 700 of his troops to seize the munitions and, if possible, capture and arrest Samuel Adams and John Hancock. Gage had received information that those two “rebels” were hiding out in Concord. Warning the Americans that the British were marching to Concord were the trio Revere, Dawes, and Prescott, of the famous “Midnight Ride.” When British Major John Pitcairn arrived at Lexington, which was on the way to Concord, he found 70 American minutemen (actually, they were almost all farmers) in battle formation at the town square.
