Are you still riding? / COVID ride philosophy.

Well, are you still riding outdoors?

Hell yes. I won't stop unless the government forbids it - and even then I will ride until a cop stops me and I will claim to be living under a rock and hopefully get away with only a warning.

Riding the trainer sucks and the riding weather in California is pretty good right now.

Just got back from a ride. I'm on an extended spring break while the school district decides what to do and when(if) we go back to school anytime soon.

Dental clinic is closed for two weeks, using each day to get as many miles in as I can.

Until the lockdown and if the weather is good then I will get out. Still snow on the ground here so it will not be too often.

DonĀ“t ride too hard. We have to strenghten our immunity system and riding hard is counterproductive.

Can't ski but I can ride!

I'm rolling 7:30 from GG Bridge tomorrow. Maybe 7:15.

Shelter in place my eyeball.

Yes to riding outside, trail running, all solo.

based on the facts presented about this virus, there is very very little chance of spreading the thing when out alone, especially if it's in low traffic areas.

Here is NYC the traffic has been MUCH quieter, making riding a rare pleasure. Lots of other riders in Prospect and Central Parks.

Yup. Had to cancel a travel vacation. Staying at home working on odds/ends around the house. And of course getting out for some rides.

Riding outside is specifically allowed under San Francisco's shelter-in-place order, as long as you stay 6 feet or more from other people.
