A medical exemption is a sign you shouldn't be out at all, much less waving it in someone's face at a bike shop as a reason to be there mask less.

Just wear the damn mask.

The simple fact that you need to type this out for people to understand this logic is MIND BLOWING!

so according to this thread, it mutates, its airborne, up to almost half of carriers are asymptomatic, and masks are useless..

i mean, sounds about right to me.

its endemic and were all going to die. not from the virus, of course... most of us will die of the diseases brought on by living in post-apocalyptic conditions.. plus plenty of starvation, murder, occasional bouts of systematic genocide, etc.

time to buy another sailboat and load 'er up with seeds, small tasty animals, and **** tons of ammo.

Whew. I just got back from an A++ 100k on quiet country roads.

This thread is a hot mess, for a number of reasons. Let's wrap up the weekend in good spirits without corona talk on everyone's favorite bicycle discussion forum.
