Have you tried to buy exercise equipment lately? What about hiking backpacks? Have you been to Lowe's? Have you heard that there are protests happening across the country?

It seems to me like there has been a massive jump in active leisure.

Seems more likely to me that the people that were previously going to the gym decided to buy their own equipment. There's also something to be said about the quantity of exercise equipment inventory available at any given time.

Perhaps in part, but bicycle sales are also through the roof producing significant back orders.

This is a good point. I accept this. Especially because I paid an exorbitant $700 for a set of 260 lbs from FringeSport because only their tacticool "MILSPEC" bumper plates were available.
