Muskoka Man Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Ride from port Sydney to Kearney up 37 and across the 80 series again then back down the d102 .trails were in great shape all over except around Huntsville they were chewed up .nothing new there though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muskoka Bill Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 It was just too nice a day to stay off the trails even though I broke my own rule not to "ride by myself "and "on the weekends as it is to busy for me". Rode up 37, down D to Port Sydney, back down D to 36 and went to the end of 36 for the first time. Ran into the OPP at D and 37 and asked about the accident yesterday on D, the fellow got to much "air" on one of the 7 UP's (Love that name) and did a number on himself. Good to see them out writing tickets for going off the trail at D and 37 while I was there, "What's wrong with riding in the powder" , as he explained his excuse.

Turbo Tim Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 Rode 270km from Uxbridge to Haliburton and back, going up to Hali, the trails were probably the best I have ever rode in S Ont, they were Cochrane like to say the least, helps when you get a foot of snow then -17 at night. Great job by all the clubs keeping them in great condition!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grover_yyz Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 Saturday I rode from Ponty Pool to Havelock and back through Campbellford and returned back to the Hwy115/35 parking lot. 350km round trip with a few wrong turns as I forgot my GPS and had no maps. I hoped to pickup a local map on the way but no one had one. Overall an excellent trip and trails were great. Sorry no pictures on this trip as I also forgot my camera as well (my phone sucks for pictures). There were many sleds out riding and overall the many fields I rode through the riders stuck to the marked trail. I will need to redo the trip again so I can take some pictures. I also finally rode through Campbellford (east to west) and I am glad I have my ski wheels as some trail and bridge crossings were lacking in snow. Rice lake was not staked but there were lots of track and few ice huts. Ganny trails were excellent in the morning buy beat in the late afternoon.

T bird Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 Left Mitchell at 8 am. Rode up to Mount Forest and over to Durham. Made our way back around to Hanover. Plan was to ride back down through, Teeswater, Walkerton, Seaforth on so on, back to the truck. Upon leaving Hanover Buddies doo starts acting up. Sounded like running on 1 cylinder. So we decide to limp into Clifford. Well before we could get there sled starts losing all power and then bang just like that it’s on fire and has flames coming from right side footwell. Doesn’t take long for a sled to become fully engulfed! Still trying to figure out why all of a sudden it lit up?i Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would explain power losss and fire. Glad he was ok. Hope Insurance is paid up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
