We're in a "hot zone" (Santa Clara County) so this probably doesn't apply everywhere, yet.

So all that makes me think twice about even doing group rides, sadly. But if that's my biggest concern at the moment I'm not doing too bad I guess.

Stay safe y'all!
My wife is in HR for a fairly large hospital. She tends to be the one that gets the legal stuff.
We went for a tandem ride today and wife left the phone on. That made for an interesting "ride" - lots of emailing and txting.
Our governor just requested all those over 65 stay home. All day, on the phone/email with lawyers and others on the phone today trying to determine what a request means and how that affects a number of medical professionals over 65.
