U wouldn’t believe how Virus & Gov restraints are affecting part & full-time RVer’s!

Some had sold their homes moons ago & retired to live in an rv and travel state to state and staying in state & national parks..
and they have been turned away there..and those that have left FL for Yankeeland are having to stay at Walmart’s, Cracker Barrels & Cabela’s (if city ordinance allows) since truck stops & interstate public parking for trucks & rv’s are full (of truckers mostly who are supplying our Nation)..
and many RV parks are not allowing new entries & even have 2 week max stays.

I went for a motorcycle ride this past weekend. I rode past 3 RV parks. All 3 were PACKED. I was surprised.

I hope you at least had a good time out riding with the wind in your face Fluxus. I haven't started mine up since last June or July!!! I keep it in a 12X14 building with an 8' Golf/roll up door. And I have a cover on it in there, I peeped under the cover, and it still got covered in dust. I'll back it out one day soon and spray it off with my pressure washer using the white tip for a soft high pressure rinse off!!! 
I keep one of those really good battery tenders from batteries plus, plugged up on it, and the light was still green, so I guess the battery is still charged up. But I had a lot of engine performance work done to it way back, and if it isn't started up daily, it takes a lot of battery to get it started.

Battery tenders are your friend. I'd taken mine out just a little so far this year. But Sunday was 130 miles. I did the Suches Loop in North Georgia, which is a very popular twisty, mountain loop. There were 100s of motorcyclists out on that ride. Seems everybody had the same idea.
I am concerned that there will soon be prohibitions against doing things like motorcycle riding for pleasure. Even though you literally don't interact with anyone at all unless you need gas, and then it's interacting with the gas pump. But, I see a total lockdown coming, and I'm trying to get on my bike as much as possible until then.

I rode on Sunday for about an hour just to keep it running smooth. I put a new rear tire on in January hoping to ride, and this was the first time I got to ride since January. As for the wind, that's why dogs hang their heads out the window, and why bikers like to feel the wind.
I just wish I had ridden longer. Dang, I miss riding.

We are learning that things as this covid19 can make it tough for all walks of life throughout the entire world. I wish it could waited another 10 years, I probably could have missed this nightmare Bill!!!
