Interesting what was said by the government today so it is clear we are going to be on lock down for multiple months now and looks like we could well be taking precautions for 6 months + Starting to get my head into writing of 2020 and thinking about 2021

That's what was said at the start I believe - to review every three weeks. Unfortunately though, I think that as bikers we can write off most of the summer :( .

Have you noticed that anyone going slower than you is an idiot, and anyone going faster is a maniac ?

Just as well we never booked anything. I was a key worker but find myself furloughed til the end of May. I reckon this virus thing will peak next week but we still might have to stay in through June.
