I see maybe 50/50 wear a mask while riding. Usually the ones wearing them are older and generally ride slower.
What gets me is someone wearing a mask but not a helmet. So they feel the risk of catching Covid while riding is higher than falling and hitting their head.
BTW.. i don't wear a mask while riding. I also keep way more than 6' away from others, I don't ride the MUP when crowded, I don't stop where others are and I average over 16mph so a mask would hinder my workout. But i do wear a mask all the other time's i'm outside.
No politics for me.
