A good read:

They’re Teens Biking Across a Turbulent Country. The Lessons Keep Coming (https://www.nytimes.com/2020/08/16/sports/cycling/coronavirus-protests-masks-biking.html)

“The timing was terrible for a trip like this.

On the other hand, it was perfect.

On July 1, three teenagers from San Francisco pedaled their bicycles to Ocean Beach and ceremoniously dipped their back wheels into the waters of the Pacific. With that, they pushed east, beginning a transcontinental journey that appears on course to wrap up later this month in New York.”

Very cool. I was thinking about this the other day.. cycling now might be the most interesting time but ya maybe not the safest time. What a great tie eto get a view into the country though. Wonder if they journaled because that'd be totally interesting time capsule
