That's following the fatal bike path collapse in Rio.

Perhaps Gaia wants us to ride on the roads.

Not surprising. My town has trails along the rivers and creeks. Right now some parts of the trail are covered in water due to the heavy rain up north. Makes some biking problematic. I'm pretty sure creeks and rivers have been overflowing their canals since the earth first had water.

We get that periodically on the MUP that follows the Willamette River from downtown. http://bikeportland.org/2011/05/31/h...ocations-53967

I pushed the ducks out of the way and rode a sunken section just to see if I could do it, but when the water got over 3', I had to get off and walk -- and repack my bearings when I got home. You have to do stupid things now and then just because.
