Topic	250,000 Bikers to Defy Common Sense for Nine Days at Sturgis Rally
Exeggcute 08/07/20 10:09:50 AM #1:	Friday is the official start of the 80th annual Sturgis Motorcycle Rally, *where 250,000 people are expected to gather in the South Dakota town* of that name for nine days of defying proven precautions against the spread of COVID-19. *Nobody is social distancing and none of them are wearing masks, local psychologist Michael Fellner told The Daily Beast. None.* Fellner is originally from Brooklyn in New York City, which was once the nations COVID-19 epicenter but has just reported three straight days without a single death from the virus. The transformation is almost certainly the result of the same precautions the bikers in Sturgis are ignoring. The Sturgis Rallys own official website has a COVID tracker tab that links to the South Dakota Health Department site, where offerings include a risk assessment for public gatherings. Highest risk: Large, in-person gatherings where it is difficult for individuals to remain spaced at least 6 feet apart and attendees travel from multiple areas, it advises. *As the rallys Facebook page attests, the bikers come from across the country.* Leaving from NH today. See ya soon! posted Howard Saborn of New Hampshire. Coming for the 1st time on Saturday from Virginia, Vickie Farmer announced. On our way now. Stopped in Missouri to sleep. Be there Thursday night, Jesse Robison of Georgia posted. Be there Friday from San Angelo Tx., David Buckner said. On my way I aint scared of the media flue or as we call it round here election flue see ya soon sd, J.F. Watson of Ohio said. Just call it a big protest !! And it be A-Ok!! J. Toothman, also of Ohio, suggested. Rod Florquest of Wyoming was among the thousands who had arrived early. *You really have to look to see someone wearing a mask, he reported, as though this was a good thing.* And, having come from seemingly everywhere with whatever virus they might happen to carry, they will all mingle and return home with any virus they happen to pick up. Some will have purchased one of the souvenir T-shirts that retired school counselor Linda Chaplin of Sturgis saw a street vendor selling.
