When I was a teen I used to ride 60 - 70 miles at a stretch, I haven't even owned a bike in years now. Now that I think about it the mobility of it I kind of want to get one. Well that'll be a thing to do when the lock down is over.
Just don't get one of those shitty Chinesium Walmart bikes that weigh half a ton. Go to an actual bike shop, and get something quality. I got an aluminum Trek road bike probably 6 years ago, and every moment on that bike has been an absolute joy. You don't get that from the Chinesium bikes.
I'll have to remember that I used to ride whatever I could get my hands on mostly shitty walmart bikes even kids bikes I would ride for miles I didn't care. So having something nice would probably be heaven.
I was riding a shitty Walmart bike before my current one. 10mph would be a huge struggle. Then I got this road bike, and suddenly, I was going over 20mph for half the effort.
