I'm a new member. I first learned of this event on Facebook. It was at the Deal's Gap Motorcycle Resort. Did it switch to this (better) place?
I'm pretty enthused now, this place appears to be much better. I tried calling and no answer so I'll try again. Any comments are welcome!
I called today to see if I could sign up -- Nope! I attended the last one (two years ago), and asked (the woman on the phone at MOA) if she knew how they were handling Covid-19. She didn't have specific information but suggested they may have cut the number of allowable attendees. I wasn't going to go unless I had received the vaccine, and now I have, but I wonder how others are approaching this. Based on my previous experience with this event, avoiding the three "C's" of Covid spreading (Contact, Crowds, inClosed spaces) would be very difficult, so I'm curious as to the attitude of others.

This will be my first MOA event and wondering if anyone from the greater Chapel Hill, NC area attending that might want to ride to the event together.
Thanks,

Hey Gary - I’m in Durham and am considering it, but not sure if I can go on the first day. Have you joined our local club? I just joined this week and met some folks on the second Tuesday dinner this week. There may be folks from the club that are going to.

I just discovered them last week and I am meeting some tomorrow at Carolina Brewery off 64 at 10:00 for the first time. I will probably join the group.
My wife & I will be there. We'll have our masks when we need to, keep a safe distance and have FUN. We went to the Pine Mountain Getaway this past Sept. Limited to 50 people and everyone played it safe and was respectful. Have to say we had an absolute blast.
Bill,
Thanks for the kind words about Pine Mountain. The KY Crew and I tried hard to make it a fun event and I feel like we did a pretty good job, while following the national and state COVID protocols.
I hope you'll be attending this years Pine Mountain Getaway. We've got some more great routes scouted out to share and even a GS specific route for our knobby tire brethren!
Take care and ride safe,
Daryl Casey
Pine Mountain Getaway Co-Host
At the end of the season last year there was a sign on the door at Deals Gap MC MC resort stating if you were not wearing a mask they assumed you have a medical condition which they are not allowed to ask about.
