    Judging from this map, https://coronavirus.jhu.edu/map.html, we've got at least a couple of months before it all quiets down good. Looking at the China graph it flattened out at about 1 month and the recovered number approaches the total confirmed number at about 2 months. On the one hand China took very aggressive action early on to slow down people's movements and that undoubtedly helped a lot to slow it down. The US has been a lot more lax in clamping down on movement so the slow down of one month in China could be 2 here in the US. At this moment the map shows Louisiana has 77 confirmed, 1 death, 76 active, and 0 recovered. I think I'd stay away from LA for now.

    will this just delay your stops or cut some out to stay on schedule, curious if our west coast tour will be changed much.

    Louisiana is now at 91 confirmed, 2 dead, 0 recovered, and 89 active. You sure you really want to go to Spyders on the Bayou? US numbers are now over 3200 confirmed, 62 dead, 12 recovered, all the rest active.

    Don’t know yet, Bob. We are hoping the 3 stops we miss will be added to the end, after Deadwood. Of course, the Bayou is one of the ones we miss. As soon as I know, I’ll share. We had a couple we know stop by, ride, come another day, ride, and at the 3rd event, bought 2 new 2020’s! We love that! Taking people on a ride, and then seeing the joy in their faces afterwards is very rewarding.

    They are off for the month like us, the plan is to offer those dealers a date at the end of the tour.

    Met you guys after a long trip from Lakeland, no ride, but a nice meetup and got to do a neat walk around, ended up buying from the dealer in Eustis after a thrilling demo ride. Not much riding going on now, but sooner or later. Getting some short reach bars so Millie can be the pilot when she gets her endorsement. For sure she won't get the SpyderAnn miles, but she will drive this thing. I have yet to get this RTL in the rain, but that should be interesting. It is dusty, needs a wash job. Cheers!

    Pretty much lying low, not much in the after mkt yet for the 2020, so I'm giving it some time to catch up, I must have some passenger arm rests, but the BRMs are gold, and not sure the swing side or fold up. Swing to side I think squeeze the passenger mount and dismount, so I gotta get more information. Some have dug into the 2020, but mentally I'm not prepared to do that yet. I can see myself pulling off Tupperware and wrecking something that cost many $, I'm thinking there will be some You Tubes out soon, so I can follow that and not screw something up. I'm letting the dealer do the 3K oil change and inspection, then I'll probably start doing the oil changes. A back rest, I think I can do without, but the first long ride will tell. I do want to get the hex oil drain plugs from LaMonster Garage to facilitate an easier oil change, but plenty of time for that. SpyderPops should b in Deland FL Syder rally in June of next year, so I'll be there spend some $.

    From the email I got from BRP notifying us of the cacellation, it said they are cancelling the rest of the tour for this year and nothing about it coming back later in the year? Unless Joe and Ann have more info it seems the tour is done.

    Sadly, we are done. If they start up another tour, we are ready! Like everyone else, we are in a holding pattern. We are taking work at home. We have done a few jobs since we got home, and have a few more lined up. If anyone needs something, call!

    Sorry to hear they've pulled the plug on the tour, but I certainly understand why. I hope BRP re-establishes the tour at some point in the future. I crossed paths with the FL guys at three different spots (ryding once), it certainly is the best way to sell a great trike. Stay healthy and safe.

    Flspyder, agree with that, I think they were instrumental in my purchase. I've come to the conclusion that BRP runs their own show without owner suggestions, but then I could be wrong, I'm not an insider. Who am I to question success?
