Getting Around

COVID-19 Riding guidelines:

Please ride responsibly during the public health crisis. If you choose to ride on your own, please follow these safety guidelines:

1)      Ride alone or with people you already live with and adhere to social distancing guidelines.

2)      Bring all the snacks and water you will need to minimize stops at stores and interactions with others.

3)      Ride with caution since our medical community is already overburdened.
