Re: Toronto - Collingwood ride (PICS!!!)
What kind of trails are those? Are they established trails or just ones that you found?
Re: Toronto - Collingwood ride (PICS!!!)
Your bike looks a little lonesome in those pics

Mostly established stuff.... lot's of Winter None Maintenance Roads. Some real gems to be found.

Sure does... but it's a secondary road (None Winter Maintenance) near Terra Nova.
Re: Toronto - Collingwood ride (PICS!!!)

Hey good buddy... it's been too long!!
Yup, sold the 950 early this spring. Got what I was asking for it + putting some funds aside for my wedding next year.
Gotta say, I'm overly surprised by the XR650. It'll go more places than the 950 off-road + will still do 120kph all day long on the highway. I've fallen in love with it!!
...it was supposed to be a "compromise"!! Ya right, this is an upgrade!!!!! LOL

Big bikes have their place for sure:) but a big single with comfy seat, IMS tank, maybe +1 fr. sprocket will do 100% of what you need if you plan on staying sorta close to legal speeds plus better on trails. Enjoy:thumbup:
Re: Toronto - Collingwood ride (PICS!!!)
I'd be totally interested in a long DS ride like that. Let me know when you plan on doing it again if you want some newb company!

Re: Toronto - Collingwood ride (PICS!!!)
Bring that over to Moondoggies this Saturday... meet some of the ADVriders.
One of the girls rides the same bike, with two rear (knobby) tires installed.

Re: Toronto - Collingwood ride (PICS!!!)
Let me know if you do that again. I could meet you at Blue. I don't have an off-road bike, but I can bring my atv along. It's got an 800 in it, so it should be able to keep up. :cool:
