It didn't occur to me earlier, are bike stores starting to stock such items?
Nah. Just converting used rags to custom masks.
LOL, might as well just stay at home/inside
you guys...its going to be 70 and nice this weekend....EVERYONE will be out and going to the parks...as is their right...if this concerns you (passing people on tight single track) dont go, because you WILL be in close contact with people. The 50% rule will not be enforceable in many parks...my god, waywayanda/ringwood/Allamuchy for example must have 10 different places to park. Is it possible the parks get closed again? sure, but for now they are open and everyone has a right to be there...so im perfectly fine with it being a madhouse....I expect nothing less...myself personally, ill probably go to a quieter spot with no hikers.

About fifteen years ago they were still park rangers. Then someone made the executive decision to change to park police to differentiate from federal park rangers, and to make it clear to the public that they were able to enforce laws.

Glad it got a LOL out of you, that was the idea...as for me, as I mentioned before, both Saturday and Sunday there's going to be TM on Catsnest / Fire Hydrant / Secret Secret which I am planning to attend. Not sure how many people are going to show up but I am sure I am not the only one bursting at the seams to get in the park...social distancing applies as mandated by the State/Park (face masks, no exchanging of tools, wipes etc...). Apparently we're allowed to ride to the location too thanks to the park opening. I bet someone from the park is going to show up...or maybe not.

As much as I wanna ride, the combo of warm weather, pent-up demand and mud might keep me away this weekend. I'm hoping that people will eventually get tired of fresh air and exercise, because Merica.
This will be an interesting experiment. Parks were closed initially because of observed behavior vs. any real science, so the same thing could happen again. As for measuring any effects of reopening parks (or anything else), there's a 2-4 week lag time before it's measurable.

Once the supply chain is back up and running, you will see masks from bike companies.

Is anyone seriously wearing masks while riding? I see some geezers down here doing it

Mostly @jimvreeland 's core customers as they glide effortlessly down the rail trail on thier freshly tuned up whip.
A few of the clothing manufacturers have been offering them for weeks now.
Primal, PodiumWear, ChampionSystem. There's probably others.

You guys fuckin over-analyze (I emphasize the anal in analyze) everything! Under normal circumstances, would you ride after all this rain anyway? Use some common sense. And masks while riding? Really? Just stay home in your bubbles of false security.
Yeah, I'm gonna head out and ride in a few hours. No mask though.

The only reason to wear a mask up here at Wayway is most likely for the bugs!

Ha! You don’t count, most people can’t ride where you ride even when it’s dry.
I know some places...
