There's been a few discussion threads on it, the jist of what I got out of them was that VRCC management would work with the host site and make a call one way or the other one month (Or so) out....
(This was not an official announcement, I don't think, just kinda what I got outta the discussion.)

(This was not an official announcement, I don't think, just kinda what I got outta the discussion.) Please don't make that one month an expected commitment. At this point it is not in our hands. We plan to move ahead until the hotel tells us otherwise. |

We do have a contract. We have a small problem regarding the contract in that our registered numbers are not what we were expecting them to be. |

You would think that if the worst case scenario came to fruition the Force majeure portion of the contract will protect you if people chose not to attend due to health concerns.

I think it will go on, as well. The numbers are down; I think we've had one registration since all this lock down stuff started. Hopefully the hotel will be willing to adjust our commitment, if necessary. |

Connie (bless your heart) you are so pessimistic. You remind me of the experts projecting COVID-19. Your numbers are off by 100%. We have had two registrations since the lockdowns began.  I, too, hope things will work out in favor. |

I rode to Wal Mart today.
I was on the freeway I will take to Asheville.
I didn't stop at the first Wal Mart. Or the 2nd. Or the 3rd. After going 50 miles from home I realized I might have to fight the Valk to make her turn around and do the shopping instead of just keeping on keeping on and getting to Asheville for the early early EARLY bird special.....
