They asked if I'm part of a group but she never actually told me how much it was going to cost. According to the confirmation email, I'm being charged $96 a day...so it looks like it's the group rate.
I'm always on the fence as I have limited vacation time and the NEECM always takes priority for me! But this year I've made my decision. My son (who lives in NC) wanted me to come down in the Spring so we can ride together. I figured we may as well combine the two events.
COVID plays a role. But I'm less concerned. My wife had it in December. I was sick at the same time...same symptoms...but I tested negative. I likely was tested outside of the time frame of viral shedding. It's not that I'm cavalier, I still wear a mask in public. My son was vaccinated during the first round (military)...so he's safe.
