Early events already canceled, and awaiting news on the fall ones. If need be will not go on any this year. Better to be safe!
When the governor of California lifts the ban, and he won’t be fast about doing that, I’m fairly sure sure we’ll be touring a few days after that.
Hope for the best, plan for the worst. We are working on plans to sail Lake Michigan with a group for two weeks in July. We have a very large family reunion set for late July/early August in Connecticut. We are planning on going to both at this point, however, like everyone else we will keep abreast of the facts not the media and make changes as necessary. We as a people must plan for the future, we must be optimistic and come out of this stronger than we were.
No way!
I'm staying home. Even though I am relatively healthy (I haven't even had the Flu for more than 30 years) I am at risk because of my age. I don't want to be responsible for someone else's illness or even death by unknowingly spreading the virus. I live alone with my computer and TV. No other person has been in my house for several months. I know that I will not be part of the problem as long as I stay in my little cocoon..... Jim
I’m ready! Find a cure, make a vaccine, and let’s go!
As much as I am wanting to, I am not dying to.....
I suspect 2020 is a write-off for any rally/ event/ social gathering of any size. A year from now there will hopefully be a vaccine and life can begin anew.
When the Governor lifts the restrictions i will be out riding. Hopefully by mid May.
I have already canceled one rally I was in charge of and had another ride in I was set on cancelled. I am booked for D3WR but will be canceling that and had thought of Sturgis, but will now pass on that. The only one I am thinking of right now is the Red Rocks Ride In. I am hoping that is far enough out to be ok. Just waiting to see what happens. I am not going to jump up and start touring just because some arbitrary order has been lifted. I want to see some proof that lifting that order didn't restart things all over again first. I too am in a vulnerable group both by age and health conditions, so I will wait and watch. Besides I have the rest of season 1 of "Itchy Boots" and season 2 (up to where she gets locked down in Peru) to watch. I am anxious to see the Argentine part of those travels as I used to live in Argentina.
No, Sturgis will probably get canceled and even if it doesn't we won't be there plus no house guests this summer either. Hate to turn away friends, but don't want to tke any chances. Most of our shooting events have been canceled so far into late June.
Absent a successful vaccine and/or a zero new reported infection rate, I'd say "no". Maybe the mid to late summer by the time this resolves.
I can see canceling events a couple months out, but saying things will be cancelled in Aug/Sept is absurd. Contractually for entertainment/vendors, it might be a hassle, but are those entertainers/vendors getting bookings elsewhere? It's at dreadful situation, but I'm not into doomsday mode as of yet.
Sad to say, but I will not be going to any events nor taking any overnight trips (on bike or not) at this point in the crisis.
that is a tough question?????? Personally, we are planning on still going to all events from July on this year with the hope that this ugly virus crap will be mostly subsided by then..
BIG F
As 2dogs said - i am not interested in taking risk just for an event, tho the need to ryde is definitely strong.
No for this year, just cancelled hotel reservations for the Deadwood 3 wheel rally. Maybe next year if things work out and are safe.
Not this year, just cancelled KOA reservations for the Deadwood 3 wheel rally.
Maybe in 2021 if things work out and we are safe.
I hate to be a downer, but realistically, the current situation will most likely continue until a vaccine is widely available. Under the current method of sheltering in place, after the first round of restrictions are lifted, either in whole or in part, there will in all likelihood be a second round of restrictions necessary to retard a second wave of infections. After that, it will most likely be dependent upon the form the virus takes in the fall and winter, meaning whether or not is has mutated enough to cause a threat to the previously infected people.
If it has, we will most likely be in the same situation all over again. Until a vaccine or a reliable treatment is available, we are going to be in an ongoing process of isolating ourselves from potential sources of infection.
Even if a large percentage of the population develops immunity to the virus, we will still be sidelined until a vaccine or treatment is widely available. We moved to Tennessee just before the crap hit the fan, with plans of going back to Illinois and bringing our truck and Spyder back. That never happened and we are without both. It sucks supremely!
No until a vaccine is developed. WHO is predicting a second onslaught in China soon and this will start over again. Any large crowds can boost the chances of reinfection again.
Only if it is the ceremony where the state treasurer presents me with the lotto grand prize check in Tallahassee.
We are hopeful SpyderQuest in September will go on. have motel reservations and are waiting to hear. Registration has been pushed back a month to give some time to the organizers to ponder. Plan is to go if deemed safe. Big if at this point. Many on this thread, it seems are playing it safe and I do not blame them. Many of us Spyder owners/ryders are "vintage" and have health issues anyway. Be safe all.
Most likely not going to any events or gatherings until this is over and I'm thinking it won't be this year.
We are still registered and rooms reserved for Ride The Rock 2020 in Port Alberni, BC this August But I'm thinking it may get cancelled. Hope not but it getting serious everywhere. Stay safe everyone.
