Seems like all the places I used as destination excuses are closed. Most of my social distancing rides have just been loops.

 

[Max Kool]

My usual canyons in the weekend, Santa Monica Mountains.

They closed all hiking trails and facilities after last weekend's fiasco btw, too many people social distancing in the same place... I've never seen the hikers' parking lots so full.

 

[reinie]

I'll just do local riding on rural county & township roads away from town. Unless to refuel or visit my elderly mother who lives there.

 

[zjondoe007]

Just wandering all the awesome roads around here!

 

[Fausch13]

Country Roads for the most part. Wish I could stop and get a Jack and 7 though

 

[high plains rider]

when the weather actually lets me ride... no different than before as John Denver said "Country roads take me home"...

 

[Mtfallstodd]

Back roads in the mountains.

Nothing a flask cant fix

 

[Hatt]

Me to my buddies back in the BMX days..
Them: "Where we going?"
Me: "Riding."

Me to self nowadays
Me: "where you going?"
Me: "Riding."

 

[Mr.Niceguy]

I ride aimlessly around vegas now....

 

[Medicine Bow]

I have some of the best roads in the country right around me. Just need it to stop snowing and get all the sand off the roads.

 

[Flashman]

We are in shutdown
We will be fined if not going to grocery pharmacy or to essential work.

Says you CAN "ride your bike"

 

[BoySCOUT]

To & from work.
On the weekends, out to some country roads, or the mountains, grab a can of some good lager, have a drink at the top of some mountain, watching the birds soar & head home.

So we just received the “stay at home” order, no non essential travel. If I need gas for a motorcycle(considered essential travel), and I want to get it at the station at the end of this six mile route (2 minutes from the house), instead of the closer station, it should not be a problem right?

 

[Medicine Bow]

Take the long way home.

Well ours starts on Friday. Minnesota says outdoor activities are still ok, as long as you keep social distance.
I think what they mean (but won't say) is walking and jogging. Ive seen more close-walking the past week than ever before. Dozens of ppl walking together. Joggers are all huffing and puffing past one another on the same narrow paths. I reckon a therapeutic solo-ride is provably safer than all that . I may have to prove it in court cuz its going to be 58*-60* on Saturday.

 

[Indian-Corey]

Anywhere I can ride as it’s the journey that matters not the destination...

 

[gilroychief]

Virtually every “shelter in place” order I have ever read, including the ones above, allow for outdoor exercise while keeping social distance from others. Riding a motorcycle builds core muscles, burns calories, and raises your cardio. So it seems to me those orders allow for motorcycle riding. If you need a destination then make your own. Bikes can park where cars can’t. Bring a picnic lunch. Or binoculars or a camera. Eat. Birdwatch. Take pictures for your homemade postcard collection. Just do so 6 feet from others.
