If there are any other two-wheel riders from Southern Ontario let us know and we'll hook up for some rides this season! I have an ALMOST equal love for 2, 3 and 4 wheeled ORVs :lol:

Fee:
Cost is $10.00 for ODSC Current Members (We will have a current list) $15.00 Non-Members. (Please bring exact change as I won't be carrying any.) Money raised will be donated to the Ganaraska Forest Patrol Fund.

Membership Requirement:
You do not have to be a member to enjoy this event. ALL ARE WELCOME. Come out and see what the ODSC is all about.

Route:
The route is just over 200kms of varying terrain. Suitable for most riders with some off-road skills.

We are also putting together a Big Bike ride which, consists of paved, gravel and 2 short un-maintained roads sections, more of a scenic ride touring East Central Ontario.

Ride in a group as there will be no sweep riders to depend on.

Note that the Ganaraska Forest is officially closed but, the O.D.S.C. has obtained approval to ride on the roads only not on any trails. Please do not venture off the route onto trails.

Please be respectful of hikers, land owners, other riders and anyone you encounter, being able to enjoy this ride is a privilege not a right. Above all be safe.

GOOD LUCK

We will be posting the routes closer to the date.
