Special Covid-19 Mission Guidelines:

Updated 8 March 2022

Based on the most current COVID-19 Prevention Guidelines: Protect Yourself and Your Family from COVID-19, and CDC Guidelines of 3 March 2022, going forward, the Lead Ride Captain for any mission will be responsible for determining whether PGR members will have to mask up or not. Please ensure that you have a mask with you, should the need arise, and respect the LRC’s decision in these matters.

Special Information:

LcPl Willey was assigned to Camp Lejeune, N.C. Sean was hiking the Appalachian Trail on his way back home to New York, last being heard from in February. A hunter sometime later stumbled upon his encampment. Looking in the tent he found the remains of LcPl Willey. His death is still under investigation and marked as suspicious in nature.

Any members joining the escort with large bike flags, please make sure they are soundly secured for highway speeds on I81 and I88 all the way to Oneonta where we will go the rest of the way via 2 lane roadway. Please watch the forecast and bring appropriate clothing to protect yourself.
