4 April Ride

Just so Danny knows… will you be going to Pioneertown this time ?? 😉

You know everything is being canceled for good reasons. You shouldn’t be organizing group rides right now!

It’s against the CA “stay at home” order and federal guidelines. Only essential activities are permitted. Although unlikely, you can be cited.

You all should drive by a few hospitals on your ride with thier tents errected for virus testing and makesift bed locations in hotels and convention centers. Or by the 1000 bed Mercy Ship docked in LA Harbor. It may give you a better sense of why we have this stay at home order.
.
Either way, please, please do not get injured while riding selfishly. Our healthcare providers are already working 24-7 to save the lives of those that have this virus, with limited protecdtive equipment, ventilators and space to care.
.
We stay home, limit our exposure to others and thier exposure to us with how we clean things, NOT for ourselves, but for the healthcare caregives who are already over taxed, over exposed to the virus, as well as those that truely need the beds, the elderly abd those with pre-existing conditions.
.
Please thinks about you actions daily beyond your own comfort and pleasure. In the grand scheme of things, it is a very short time for us to deny ourselves for the sake of others.
.
Please don’t take this a judgment, these are facts people, just trying to flatten the curve of the impact on this thing and minimize the deaths especially of our heatlhcare workers. Thank you for considering you options.

I have to concur with Mark and Karl on this one. I feel the need for 2 wheels as much as any of us but can not in good conscience ignore the rules put in place to do our part in a world wide effort to stop the spread and destruction this pandemic is causing.

I’m going to pass as well. To err on the side of caution makes too much sense.

I’ll not be going out for a joy ride. Not much of a sacrifice if you ask me. I’d like to see Pioneertown someday but not in the face of this headwind.
