People getting out more

An article in the local media pointed out the opportunity for people to engage in fitness activities. The article highlighted bicycle sales.

Main point: "If there has been a silver lining to the COVID-19 pandemic and resulting shutdowns, it might be that more people are getting out and exercising."

Key points:
  • One owner said, "he believes the sales and service requests his business has fielded have resulted from people seeing others riding in their neighborhoods and deciding to get back into riding themselves."
  • "... people are thinking twice about public transport."
  • Another owner said, "“It’s a good way to get out of the house and get some exercise, but also be at a safe distance from others."
