TN has been pretty much wide open . We were there in July had a great 11 day ride in the area. NC had a few issues dragging their feet on opening up thing . I was planning a ride their from Wi in the next week or so . But On a COV19 lock down now. Granddaughter was exposed to a staff member at school that tested positive . She was with me when school called so he Dad and I decide she would stick with me until the 14 days are up.

A friend of mine is leaving Friday with three others to do the Dragon. (For the billionth time.) He has not said a word about any type of COVID concern. I will double check with him a little later today.

But as I understand, u have a totally GREEN light.
