I think the lack of snow is more cause for concern than Covid. Too many of us refuse to accept a virus will keep us from riding during an already shortened season. Riders will ride. We'll be hungry and seeking shelter. Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.
One thing I didn't consider, was how so many of those businesses up north already operate with such low operating expense (labor) so PPP or other programs can't give them the quite the same benefits as other businesses.
My big concern here in MN is Gov. Walz. Similar to Whitmer, he's making decisions and issuing orders that don't follow logic or don't seem to have facts to support their decisions. Last March, the DNR pulled the groomers off the trails so riders wouldn't gather and congregate.
When I'm out riding the north woods of MN or the Yoop, I love checking my cell phone and seeing no bars.... killing the engine and not hearing a sound except the snow hitting the trees..... they should order everyone to social distance to that level.
