Take a tor browser bundle and set it up to use only your bridge,
and run it on another internet connection. (That does not check
whether it is in the bridge database.)

No, that's a bad idea. People that use your bridge can do so only
as long it has the same address; they wouldn't know when (and how)
the address changes and just see that the bridge thew are using
has disappeared.
