This isn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t new, as I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve been 15 years not a slave to cars. But recently I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve not had work to go to, so a daily ride to a workplace, and then returning home during the still surreal situation we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re all in, is a bit odd. The global coronavirus pandemic is a huge tragedy that will be with us for a while until there\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a vaccine and maybe longer. One small consolation is that it has reduced traffic and pollution. This is good for bike riders, but there are still plenty of hazards so cyclists should remain &#8230;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-jetpack-markdown\"><h1>Texas Biking from Twitter<\/h1>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-twitter wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Have you ridden the Five Mile Creek Trail yet? <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/ekuyHM8dXK\">https:\/\/t.co\/ekuyHM8dXK<\/a><\/p>&mdash; BikeDFW (@BikeDFW) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/BikeDFW\/status\/1282031845140570113?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">July 11, 2020<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-twitter wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">That ride was humiserable!!!
