Enjoying the outdoors

Riding to Queen Mary
Today was a great day for a bike ride. I road well over an hour. There were lots of branches down. People were in their yards, some were walking and biking. Outdoor biking time just seems to fly by.
Yesterday I did a virtual biking in Long Beach California. The beach trail goes down to the Queen Mary. Barb and I walked the trail some years back. One thing I noticed it was very quiet. Along the trail are fitness activities you can add to your walk or ride. People were flying kites. 
These experiences I was watching how people were coping outdoors. Most don't wear masks, but the trails or even here most were social distant from each other. I had my mask available for any social contact. In California there were a number of guys who had bandanas available if needed. On the trail there about 40% were using masks. On local trails here most do not use masks on trails. Again people are distant from each other. I was just making observations.
Blue skies, wind in my face mostly going between 6 and 10 miles a hour. Speed wasn't my intent just peddling with my motorized bike. What a lift to be outside in the springtime. Keep walking
