Tell us: How has lockdown affected you and your riding?

The coronavirus pandemic has affected pretty much every facet of our daily lives, and this publication unsurprisingly wants to hear how it's affected your bike habits.

Bike shops have remained open, at least in the UK, and many people have taken up cycling as they look to make the most of the time allowed outside for exercise. Turbo trainers have also been flying off the shelves, with Brompton’s Will Butler-Adams estimating sales across the industry are up 15%.

Meanwhile, there's been accusations of national newspapers using telephoto lenses to make it look like cyclists are riding in groups, but also "dozens" of cyclists have still been trying to ride in Richmond Park despite the ban.

Things are looking less rosy for the professional side of the sport, with multiple WorldTour teams being forced to reduce riders' salaries and temporarily lay off support staff. Teams such as Ineos and Movistar have also been trying to aid relief efforts, with Ineos helping deliver hand sanitiser produced by their sponsor while Movistar have donated 100% glasses to doctors fighting the pandemic.
