I read today that Germany has extended it's ban on large scale events until August 31st. Doubt we will see a MotoGP season this year.

The shutdown is lengthened for another 2 weeks. After this period the government will make new decisions. Larger events are not allowed for a longer time, that's right. There are a lot of ideas of how to find the way gradually back into normal life, while sailing the Corona ship only by sight as each other country do.

Large parts of the BRP closed because of clean up after big storm on Monday. Plenty of other nice roads around here in WNC.

Nuts to that. I've been Donald-Duckin' it for a month now. It's a short walk, and I don't have anything the neighbors haven't seen before.

Been there
A follow up to Houtman's post. Now, the BRP appears to be closed from Blowing Rock, all the way south to the end. Bummer for those of us who've been waiting since the Fall to get back up there to view the Spring Blossoms!

There still is a small section open called the Asheville Corridor . I was told the BRP was closed for tree removal after the big storm we had on Monday. (?)

I've been helping out here and there at my friend's small car repair shop. He's got another friend, a Catholic priest, helping as well. Father Doug is on call to provide an Anointing of the Sick (formerly referred to as Last Rites) at rest homes in Orange County. He's had to leave a few times, and with the virus, he has had to stand outside the person's window, and administer the blessing through the person's window.
I have hesitated to ride because it didn't feel right to risk of taking a bed someone else would need. But it's settling down now so I believe the next warm streak I'll go for a spin.
It's a strange era to live through. Every generation has to experience at least one of these. Hopefully, we'll learn something good from this and be better people.

I do hope you're right, DAC.

I still ride my bike , people exercising can get heart attacks and in the UK more people have to go to the ER because on injuries because of DIY projects while at home. Just be extra careful.

Florida's Stay at home order:
What about going outside?
You can still go for a run, hike, bike ride and swim under the executive order, just don’t do it in a group and maintain your distance from other people.
The executive order also includes fishing and hunting as “essential" activities.
Heck I think Fla is already starting to open beaches again.

My wife has started providing telemedicine full time from our dining room table. Since we live in a very small condo, it's very distracting for her to have me banging around in the house, so I've pretty much been spending all of my time in the garage when I'm not at my friend's shop helping him fix cars. It's an interesting dynamic, and has allowed me to get a ton of projects done. I've fixed up and sold my Father in Law's car and done a lot of things that I've been promising my wife I'd do for months. Yesterday, the rain stopped and the clouds started looking a bit more friendly, so I took a ride on the CB. It was nice to leave the house with a helmet and leather gloves, rather than a face mask and exam gloves.
Now that the sun is out, I look forward to riding to my buddy's shop for my new mechanic side gig. He said "If the cops pull you over because they think you're out riding for fun, show 'em your dirty hands and tell 'em you're essential!"

Ya know, when I do ride, I put my Givi trunk on the back, even if it's empty. I haven't heard of people in CA being stopped, but I figure if I do, I can say I'm on my way to pick up food.
