Cycling and the Coronavirus

[lane]

If 20% are off sick and others working from home there will definitely be less cars.

Your not near any person when cycling just drivers mostly in cars our perhaps a couple of other cyclists. Your more likely to catch it from your work or shopping lol after all you don’t know who’s returned from China or Italy as you don’t stalk your customers or staff obviously

 

[PK99]

Nah! Fresh air = nobody else near you! That’s why you don’t catch anything 😄

Avoid the cake stop at the caff!

The usual mantra about exercising with head colds vs chest colds probably applies even more strongly.

Head colds vs chest colds sounds like an unfair competition.

When I used to run, many moons ago, I was always told "in the head go ahead" "in the chest give it a rest"

I expect we will soon have a thread "should I carry on cycling with Coronavirus". To which the correct answer is probably not.

How can I ride while self-quarantined?

Touch wood, cycling regularly over the past 10 years has meant i've not had a single cold in that time, well maybe once - certainly not one or two a year. As for the coronavirus - at no higher risk.

I live in a city and work in a university. I'm probably doomed

I'm off to London tomorrow, for a weekend

Luckily enough, the coach is laden with anti-virus - mostly in cans

Lower risk, regular cyclist have better immune systems than our more sedentary neighbors

So in the cafe this morning I washed hands, sanitised hands and wiped down the table, cutlery etc.

My buddies watched with interest..........

Maybe you should have limited yourself to you own hands

Why, you’ll be fine on your bike?
