    Hi Everyone,

    Weather for Friday June 5 looks nice (20% chance of rain). Looking for riding buddies for a Dual Sport ride. Stuff like unassumed roads, forest access. No tight or difficult single trail as I'll be on my Africa Twin and the F&*^%er is heavy.

    I'm in Cambridge but willing to meet up with people if you're not to far away. Don, Michel you guys interested?

    Hi Rudy,

    I am in Orangeville and would be interested in going for a ride. New to dual sport so do not know many unassumed roads and have not got a GPS yet to pick from the available on this site. I am available to meet you anywhere after 10am, have a stock 250L so if you can get through I am sure I would!!

    I am open. The Orangeville Mall, near the cinema. I can get to any part of town in 5 minutes. Where do you know?

    Don't know Orangeville at all so the Mall sounds like a good meeting place. I'll send you a PM with my cell no. BTW found two interesting GPS tracks on this site (2017 DS routes and Orangeville to Creemore). Just a heads up, this will be the second ridge I've ever done using a GPX file, so be prepared for a lot of stops as I try to figure where to go.

    Awesome ride today guys. We didn't have a water crossing but we did have a log crossing and that makes it an adventure ride. Allan took his street bike - 17" in front wheel and pirelli baldinis for rubber. He took it places I couldn't get the Africa Twin up. Way to go Allan!
