Honestly I find them infuriating. They talk about everyone being home together. Preventing spread and being safe. Who are they talking about. Most of us are living in a different world. Are the folks at gas stations, grocery stores, ups,usps,fedex and factories immune to covid-19? As other states shut down big business we here in Ohio are ramping up. Pennsylvania has also shut down manufacturing now. In there 30hr period given to close our sister plant churned out over 60 truckloads of raw material to our Ohio plant that will push us to 24/7 operation. Corporate lawyers already preparing arguments to side step any Ohio shut down. They’ve already managed it in California. My wife works in hospital administration and has been working 13hr days 6 days a week. Healthcare workers connected to non-essential procedures are being strung along as well. Offered work 2 days a week so after paying for insurance and such barley bringing home a pay check and preventing them collecting unemployment. This is cheaper for hospitals than filling open jobs with permanent staff and letting others just stay home. It also puts many more at risk. The positive case numbers are a joke. Locally folks that are very sick are tested for flue and other illness and if they are negative there assumed to have covid-19 and sent home. Testing is only being done if you’re sick enough to require hospitalization. The whole thing seems to be a shit show.

Got it dirty. My first ride of the year. Everything seems as it should but only 60 miles.

Gonna be ordering some delivery that will last me a few days so I don't have to dip into my stockpile. Lasagna sounds good. Stay at home order in full: https://assets.documentcloud.org/documents/6816974/Ohio-Stay-at-Home-order.pdf

@SpecialEd and @Tonik This is my creation... Chocolate chip protein pancakes with egg, Colby Jack and sausage.

I made a pancake sammich.

See the above pic. She'll be back and faster than ever.

Some asshole broke my Ducati.

I had one of my nuts cut off.

Got a ride in before the rain. Scavenged fenders haven't been needed yet.

Anything that you can claim the 1st Amendment on is an exemption. You can just say you on a mission from God to do what ever you want.

That is really disappointing. We are willing to share our expertise on protective gear...you should too. Keep in mind textile over wear is better than the riding jeans and motorcycle leather is better than that. Most people hate the jeans, they fit and look like crap in most cases.

Klim K FIFTY 1 RIDING JEAN would get my vote. Cordura abrasion resistance and full D30 hip and knee armor.

Just Gave my grandpas 1981 twin star 3kicks & it started After sitting 3years with the same gas that Rode the dragon But I put fuel stabilizer in it . It only tops out at 70 but the foot pegs fold up

This is a snapshot of what happens when societal norms begin to shift. The stupid begin to eat each other.

Eat one of these beauties and you're good to go for the rest of the day--maybe even a few days.

This will not change very soon, as health care has been monetized for a long time now. I doubt any politician will succeed in creating single payer healthcare in my lifetime, but this is the right thing for our country to do (I am 64, BTW.) As everyone knows, we are the only industrialized nation without universal health care; I find this embarrassing, personally, as an American. I am paying $1,200 per month for my and my wife's health insurance until I start taking Social Security, Medicare, and one of my two pensions this coming November. Both of us are very physically active, eat right, and get plenty of sleep--no medical issues. The key to getting efficient nationalized health care is to start taking care of ourselves so that there are few individuals whose illnesses tax the system.

Rode the hell out of it this afternoon.
