COVID-19 has changed entertainment plans across the country since concert venues, amusement parks, and other recreational locations remain temporarily closed, and large family gatherings have been postponed. Yet social distancing doesn’t have to mean staying locked indoors during warm weather, especially if you have a recreational vehicle with the proper insurance. Here, review recreational vehicle ideas to enjoy this summer in the wake of COVID-19.

Keep Your Distance With Recreational Vehicles This June

Motorcycle Adventures

Channel your inner easy rider by planning epic motorcycle rides. Sitting atop a motorcycle makes it easy to keep your distance while staying extra safe since there are fewer vehicles on the road. Research the best motorcycle rides in your region, such as State Route 13, running from Athens to Huron, OH, that features many small towns along the way. Ohio Route 93 in Southeast Ohio provides a look into the past since it goes through the state’s black diamond region, reminding you of a time when coal mining was king.

Review your motorcycle insurance coverage before taking off and call your carrier if you need to amend your plan for any reason.

Boating Fun

Climb aboard your boat in June to explore your region’s waterways. Ohio features several inland lakes ideal for escapades with immediate family members. Some lakes are “electric motor only,” so keep that in mind. Make certain everyone’s life jacket is secured before you set off for a day of fun and provide plenty of sunscreen since UV rays reflect off the water. Boating allows you to spend quality time with your favorite people minus social distancing worries and, like motorcycle rides, makes it possible to enjoy the state’s natural beauty. Again, check your insurance plan and update it, as necessary.

Even if you do not currently own a boat or a motorcycle, social distancing provides the perfect reason to purchase your dream recreational vehicle and find new ways to have fun.

If you need motorcycle insurance or other recreational vehicle coverage, contact Simmons Insurance Group of Southeastern Ohio with locations in Coolville, Belpre, and Racine, OH. This family-owned and -operated agency has served the state since 1970. Even though agents are currently working from home, you can expect the same level of service over the phone.
