Atwood has a municipal parking lot.  Usually put a sign up for no parking if there is a rental at the community center for No Parking.  But you don't know that till the day you get there.  The gas station across the road has room for a few trucks and trailers, and usually doesn't mind  (be polite fill up when you get back there).  Right on the trail.

My search for prime parking is continuous year round . Recent finds have been in Listowel  , Clifford and Stratford .  Scratched Teviotdale the restaurant sucks .

Everything can be a battle, if you do not look for a solution or direction to avoid that. I remember the benefits of arriving to park and ride for 7/8AM is you got a parking spot, trails were quiet, picked up around 11'ish and by noon/1PM you had 100 miles on, packed it up to head home as the crazies started to come around every other corner. 

too excited to get on the trail and a one track mind I guess. By product of less snow these days is the parking lots have more parking area vs. snow staging areas....lol.    

Most are pretty good just odd bad Apple. Haven't witnessed too much of it. I have a few spots I go too on weekends. As south trails close here more and more trucks and trailers show up where I go too. It's becoming a real battle some days.
