I've been trying my hardest to make sure I get out on my mountain bike and get some fresh air, we're allowed to go out for fitness and we can be in groups no larger than 2.

I normally do a lot of mountain biking, well urban biking.. I do enjoy the hills and the rocky trails, but urban biking has always been my way of meditating.

I'm going to throw up some photos along the way.. I'm incredibly lucky to have ended up where I did in all this chaos and I'm trying to do my best each day to smile at everyone I see.. It's mostly the elderly I see out to be honest.. every day.. walking, sitting on a bench...

The next demographic I see the most of are young, tattooed up, shirt off, dodgy looking folks zooming around on mountain bikes or sitting in groups...

So if you want to come for a ride now and then, checkout some photos!

As I took this picture I texted some friends, ''you boys should grab a beer at ya favourite local, you probably wont be able to for a while''
This was March 22nd... that night it was announced all bars would shut the next day at lunch


I've go a bike track thats around 40kms return (24miles) and it passes some of the most stunning beaches in the world with a sun that always sets over it.



On this day I found a fish and chips shop thats open still... not many people around but


found a dog sunning himself and asked him to take a picture for me


always end the ride with basketball


we've got cruise ships floating off the coast, some have confirmed convid19, some dont..
we're in a pickle with what to do..



Had to go to work today, cities a ghost town
some shelves still empty

That is awesome. Same here...country roads are empty so I dont have to worry about drunks coming round the bend.


I REALLY wish I had the race car here. Damn roads are empty so one could do some topend runs and not have any obstacles to worry about.

Plus, i have offset my carbon footprint til I die. 😅😂🤣

Looks great. Have fun.

Stay safe and please don't have an accident while out riding and perhaps stay away from those ships.

Thanks for sharing the photos, I love the panoramas.

And that beer sure looks good.



enjoy.

Excellent!

I am doing a lot of outdoor activities I haven't done in years thanks to the fearful weasels who don't leave home.

Perhaps the meek won't inherit the earth after all

Any crabs running down your way, worth a scooping weekend?

Road biking to!
I love it. The streets are empty and it safe to ride.
If it never goes back to the way it was, I would be in heaven.

All of those pics are incredible!!!

We can still ride here in Colorado but I go suburban trails (may be different than what most people consider urban) and so its mostly pine trees and scrub. Maybe a rattler if you get lucky. That just look so fun!
