Keep motocross tracks open during the pandemic.

Keep motocross tracks open during the pandemic.
Why this petition matters
As we know the pandemic has been stressful for everyone. People’s mental health is at their breaking point and they need to find relief. Motocross and motorsports is one of those hobbies/sport that brings stress relief. Studies have found that motocross riding decreases stress and increases focus.
In 2020, motocross organizations and tracks in Ontario were able to keep people safe and not one covid case was transmitted from any races or racetracks. We are asking you to reconsider closing motocross tracks and allow them to open.
If golf courses are permitted to open then motocross tracks should have the same consideration. Golfing is more likely to have mixed households golfing in groups.
Motocross is an individual sport which requires full protective equipment. All tracks require social distancing as well as mask wearing. If schools are safe to be open then motocross tracks should be allowed to be open too.
