Dennis Quaid and his fiancée Laura Savoie took a break from the self-quarantining at home on Sunday.
The 66-year-old actor and his 26-year-old love opted for some exercise and fresh air while cycling throughout Los Angeles County’s West Side.
The Midway star appeared to take his trek seriously and was decked out in a blue and orange striped cycling shirt and shorts.

Laura was dressed more casually in black leggings with a black zip-up hoodie.
Dennis bike featured a slim street tire, while she rocked more heavy-duty off-road tires.
The two got in some serious distance, and their trip wound through Pacific Palisades in the northwest portion of Los Angeles, before heading heading south to Santa Monica and back up to LA’s tony Brentwood neighborhood.
Despite Dennis’ heavy-duty gear, the couple seemed to be evenly matched and didn’t have trouble keeping the same pace.
Contrasts: Dennis had on a blue and orange biking shirt and matching shorts, while Laura wore a low black zip-up hoodie and black leggings

Dennis proposed to Laura, a PhD student at the University of Texas, in October of last year while promoting his war film Midway in Hawaii.
‘It happened on the very northernmost point of Oahu, at Turtle Bay. It was kind of spontaneous. It was very much a surprise,’ he told Extra shortly after proposing.
‘I had the ring in my pocket… It has been kind of a month-and-a-half plan… I wanted it to be private,’ he added, before mentioning that he proposed at sunset.
‘She was actually taking a selfie of us, and I put the ring in front and said, “Will you marry me?” — and then she fell down.’

Slowing down: In March, a source told Us Weekly that the couple had postponed their wedding, which was set for later this year, claiming it was due to ‘travel issues’ and not the coronavirus pandemic
In March, a source told Us Weekly that the couple had postponed their wedding, which was set for later this year, though they claimed it was due to ‘travel issues’ and not the coronavirus pandemic.
Despite their nearly 40-year age gap, Dennis has claimed it doesn’t affect their love.
‘No, it really doesn’t bother us. I didn’t go out looking for an age gap or someone really younger than me. You have no control over who you fall in love with,’ he told The Guardian in November.
‘I don’t fall in love easy. But I can’t let what a few people think control all that. I’ve been married three times and this is the final one, I know it is. I feel like I have a real partner in life.’
