When I'm riding my motorcycle, I'm glad to be alive? - and when I stop riding my motorcycle I'm glad to be alive. (The late Neil Peart) ??? I'm spending the winter in Southeast Florida but don't ride here.There are no good motorcycling roads. Just about all the roads are divided,? straight as an arrow, multi-lanes.? Traffic is heavy with a toxic mix of elderly and impatient drivers.? There's no helmet law in Florida and it's rare to see helmeted riders, much less riders wearing? protective clothing.? In general it seems like a bad place to ride, so I checked the statistics. ??? According to the Governors' Highway Safety Association (GHSA), 18% of all? Florida traffic deaths are motorcycle related.? By contrast in New Jersey with its mandatory helmet law, 11.8% of traffic deaths are motorcycle related. But Motorcycling in Florida,? unlike Jersey is a year 'round sport. So how do Jersey's statistics compare with nearby states without helmet laws?? In Pennsylvania motorcycle fatalities are 11.6% of the state total and in Connecticut the percentage is 12.7% of the total. These rates are comparable to New Jersey's although both states have lower population densities. ??? Significantly, Florida has a traffic fatality rate for all vehicles per 100,000 miles traveled? of 1.41 fatalities while New Jersey's rate is less than half at 0.71 fatalities per 100,00 miles of travel. Safety-wise Florida is not a great place to ride. ??? In terms of helmet use, the GHSA estimates that in 2016 helmet use saved 1,859 motorcycle fatalities and I believe in wearing All tThe Gear All The Time, but It's apparent that to stay safe, where you ride is often more? important as what you wear.

Under the ominous warning ?Be Advised:? it repeats much of the safety guidance we?re getting these days, appended with some smart, specific advice: ? Avoid crowded spaces: Ride motorcycles. ? Do not use public transportation: Ride motorcycles. ? Well-ventilated spaces are virus free: Ride motorcycles. ? Wear gloves: Ride motorcycles. ? Keep at least six feet from other people: Ride motorcycles. ? Keep a positive attitude: Ride motorcycles! While the meme is intended to be a humorous diversion from the anxiety caused by a global pandemic, I intend to take its advice. I recommend you consider it, too. I?m going to ride when I can. If I can?t ride, I?m going to plan riding trips, talk about riding with friends and think about riding. I?m going to get some work done on my sidecar project. In short, I?m going to continue to be an active member of the motorcycle community because as a membership organization, community is, after all, how we do what we do. Stay safe, plan for the future. But also, join me. Get out there and ride your motorcycle. Thank you for your support, Rob Dingman President and CEO American Motorcyclist Association ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- As President Ed pointed out - the club doesn't cease to exist - it can change modus-operandi for a bit. If someone would like to lead a group ride - riding the bikes can easily be done in compliance with the restrictions given by the Govenor. 6 feet apart - no issue. If the leader wants to make it a group lunch ride - pick a nice park for a destination and have everyone brown bag their lunch. It's gotta be better than sitting around the house twiddling thumbs.

FONTANA I just got word that the MOA canceled the Fontana Rally in April. ? They have negotiated with the hotel to move the event to August 28-30, 2020. All individual hotel reservations and MOA registration will be automatically transferred to the new date.? For those where the date is not good, you can ask for refund of down hotel payment.? The MOA fee can be credited to a future rally or I assume refunded. I have not yet heard anything final about the June MOA National Rally other than they are actively talking with the Fair Grounds. (I am holding on to my hotel reservation since it had only a few days cancellation clause.)

His main point is that we tend to denigrate skilled manual labor, often in favor of relatively low-level white-collar work. The result is that we are losing our ability to engage with and repair the devices that we use. Of course, the nature of the devices have changed in a way that has decreased our ability to work on them (computers on wheels, anyone?). Here at Princeton, a friend of mine teaches a Freshman Seminar where each year a group of students rebuild a 50s-60s vintage Triumph Tiger Cub. It is a great course with excess demand from the students. He has them read two books. One, not surprisingly, is ?Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance.? The other is ?Shop Class as Soul Craft? (at my suggestion). ? Hank Farber. P.S. I am something of a lurker on njsbmwr, but I intend to join for some of the meet-ups (once they happen again). In some way taking a ride on the cycle is the ultimate social distancing. I have two bikes (one a BMW). 1) Triumph Tiger 800 Xcx and 2) BMW K75RT.

I know you are ready to Saddle Up & Ride and put the current health crisis in your rear-view mirror. Our Rally Team is working hard to make sure we are ready for you in Great Falls and I want to share with you some thoughts about the National Rally. Obviously, there is much uncertainty about the future. The health situation is very serious and of great concern to our members. I recognize the severity of your concerns for your health, safety and future travel plans. I want you to know that we will take every precaution to deliver a safe and healthy rally in June. If the situation forces alternate plans or makes a safe environment impossible, we will adjust so that our members can feel secure in the Rally environment. As of today, we have every intention of putting on a great show for you June 25-28, 2020 and we are working hard to make that a reality. Currently, I expect to have a much clearer picture of the future by May 15. I understand that your personal situation or tolerances may not allow you to wait for a decision. If that is the case for you, our refund policy allows for a full refund of your registration fees before May 25. If you need to make a decision today for your own peace of mind, please contact the member services team at (864) 438-0962 or membership at bmwmoa.org and we will be glad to accommodate you. I want to assure you that we will make the best decisions about the Rally with our members health and financial well being in mind. The MOA has always been about community, friendship and fellowship and our greatest responsibility at the Rally is to keep our friends and family healthy and safe.? For all of us, I am hopeful for good news in the coming weeks. Until then, please be safe and stay healthy. I look forward to seeing all of you at the National!
