Motorcycle Expo Rescheduled
The Expo is a great place to see some cool bikes, and the people-watching is pretty good, too.
I just learned this so I’m guessing a lot of you had not heard either: this year’s Colorado Motorcycle Expo has been rescheduled for February 19 and 20. It had originally been set for this weekend.
I was in the midst of writing a post saying I would be skipping this year’s event when I went to their website to copy down the URL and only then discovered the postponement. Here’s what they say about this change:
Even though the dates have changed, The Expo is on!!
The 2022 Colorado Motorcycle Expo will be held February 19th and 20th.
The Colorado Department of Public Health has granted us a variance pre-approval to Public Health Order 20-38 should the order be extended. This means vaccinations will NOT be required for our event.
We can hardly wait to you see everyone there!!!
I had been wondering about this, thinking it was highly unlikely that, despite any “mandate,” this biker crowd would comply with a mask requirement. And now it seems no requirement for vaccinations, either.
This is all exactly why I was planning to skip it this year. Judy and I are fully vaccinated but for three days each week we keep our three-year-old grandson Jack, and at that age he is obviously not vaccinated. Now, they say kids that young are highly unlikely to get seriously ill from Covid but on rare occasions they do. Judy is super cautious about this, not wanting to be in any way responsible if he should get sick.
All that considered, it seemed to me that the Expo was shaping up to be a possible super-spreader event, much in the way the Sturgis rally was last year. I like going to the Expo but keeping my grandson safe, not to mention keeping my wife happy, takes a higher priority.
But who knows. Omicron seems to be fading rapidly and maybe the difference of a few weeks will be significant. But right now I’m not counting on it.
