COVID: The chances of COVID are very low, almost none. The biker was far from you, and if he didn't cough or sneeze you shouldn't be worried.

Low risk: This is a LOW risk scenario for transmission of COVID 19. Outside, over two meters away with someone traveling by - not allowing for a cloud of microparticles to cling in the air.
