But as you speed down the PUBLIC MULTI-MODAL paths likely at close to 15-20mph (because you are on the tail of golf carts) PLEASE WEAR A SHIRT. It's gross enough with your sweat flying off behind you when there is no pandemic but please have a little courtesy for others particularly those of us who are walking. NOT saying you are going to give me Covid. Likely not. But why take a chance? If you want to go shirtless and spray your bodily fluids behind you please do it in the street where I can turn on my wipers.

NOTE: This is mostly the "speed bikers" not the casual folks out for a ride.
As a walker, I understand your comment, but have never had the experience of having a shirtless biker ride pass spraying body fluids. Don't even recall a shirtless biker. This is perhaps an irritating sight that provokes an image but not a likely COVID issue.
