I imagine there are a lot of sledders in the same boat. I can hear the idiot's comment, 'But think of the children!' There had better be something in the permit pricing for you riders come next season. I'll end that or I'll just get madder. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I will assume you mean some type of credit for purchased permit cost from the provincial government for people of the area since it was their man that caused the issue. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yes and by their directive you're not supposed to travel to ride. If I had any advise for Dr Cherrios, I'd say retire & crawl back under the rock where you came from. You have pissed off a very large segment of your region with your decisions. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Permit credits for all those in southern Ontario who live in a PHU where there are no OFSC trails, and you are being told to stay in your own health unit. Some believe that is the law and haven't ventured out yet. I have 1900 km on so far, so I will forego my credit. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hopefully the biggest decision Dr Cheerios is allowed to make in the future is which ornge juice the hospitals serve, pulp or no pulp.

revrnd 4,771 Posted February 22 Author Report Share Posted February 22 New & old camps. The new 1 has a walk out basement. As 1 of the guys said from a neighbouring camp said "They've been watching too much Buckmasters". Nepheline syenite mine near 'Blue Mountain'. There is another operation near Nephton. That operation is being combined w/ this upgraded facility. If you see trains of covered hoppers on the CPR passing thru Pontypool or Burketon, they came from here. The infamous Twin Lakes Hotel (it's for sale). I was only there once, but it was quite the destination back in the day... Our destination for lunch in Havelock. E107 passes right beside it. Beside CR 46 looking NW towards the mines Limestone rock cut @ the same location. Same geological structure that you see near Lakefield & Coboconk My buddy & his '21 900NA Renegade 'Witch's hat' near Twin Lakes. It's a navigational beacon for planes. Been there as long as I can remember. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

We're having a bit of a drought here, picked up new snow this past week but until then I have had almost no interest in riding. Put on 500k this weekend alone, season total just doubled. Hopefully this warm up doesn't screw it up too much. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Now need to make it back there On 2/18/2021 at 9:19 AM, Crow said: Was never one to take many pictures, but feeling this year will be my last in the groomer, so stopping to get a few. Too many hours on the trails, too few of those with the sled. Yup. Was there too. In the machine more than on the machine BUT always loved it. Building trail and all the thumbs up made it alot of fun. Thanks for the dedication Edited February 22 by volunteer2 2 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hopefully this warm up doesn't screw it up too much. I had a couple of seasons like that before I hooked up w/ SJ & company around '17 or '17. This year has been the opposite. I've been out pretty much every other day, either personal riding or some 'work' riding putting up signs. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Pretty much only ride with my son, or extended family, same ones that do trail work together. Don't ride alone often, but I really enjoy it when I do, no one else to worry about I guess, or me trying to keep up with. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yup, Maples restaurant in Sharbot Lake. Just off the Top E. First time to a restaurant since last March, and it was one of the last ones I went to before this virus thing, even though it's almost 3 hours away. It was good, everyone spaced out, nobody wandering around aimlessly, and following the protocols. No worries here. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
