Felt so good this morning... but could it be the last legal ride for a while?![]() But the bigger news came a bit earlier today. Just heard it an hour or so ago. We knew the stay-at-home order would be extended. But what we thought were clarifications on the extension? Not the case. The new order is not an extension; it's a far more draconian effort to keep people from leaving their homes. It includes a 5 mile radius (described as distance from your home) outside of which you are not allowed to walk, run, hike or... bike. That's right, a ride to Skyline for 99.9% of us is illegal. A ride to the coast, out of the question. A ride anywhere that you might want to get on shorts, a jersey and cycling shoes... is not allowed. Basically, if you see anyone looking like a "cyclist" and not a commuter, odds are, they are not legal. This is interesting. I've asked for clarification, noting the huge difference in considering a 5 mile run as an essential activity for maintaining health, vs a 5 mile bike ride. Maintenance of health via exercise is considered an essential activity. But they've made it pretty much impossible to do so by bike. Guess we're going to be selling a lot more trainers. |
