Trunking the port will not make one subnet ping the other subnet without
layer three. trunking is a layer 2 protocol that allows a single port to
propagate traffic from different vlans. The packets are still in different
vlan identified by the vlan tag in the trunk encapsulation. So you've
bridge the two vlans (bridge-groups) in R2 you still don't have an ip to
ping. Layer 3 connectivity needs layer 3 address.
