I began bicycling right after the stay in place order was lifted and I enjoy bike rides on the Silver Comet Trail (Cobb County) and Panola Mountain Trail (DeKalb/Henry counties). So far, the farthest I have biked round trip was 40 miles on the Silver Comet Trail. Usually, I average 15 to 20 miles per ride.
