Reply With QuoteCould also be a large animal pet food store. Been in there on more than one occasion and see people riding horses down the street.
If it's a tack store it might do even better. Although the space seems small.

You'll see a pet salon next to it probably...

Don't kid yourself. There's a tack store on Avenue @ Lawrence. The place is always packed (with yuppies), and it's not that big.

It's alive - Shed's new home
many will recognize the busy corner in Erin.....
a) they own it
b) big parking not shared and side street as well
c) more room inside - there will be a loft as well as the larger main floor
here' the main corner - that is just to the south of the new location
about 5 minutes from the Forks....
4 Main Street South, Erin
The are staying open a bit later on Dec 1st which is their last day at the old location so if you are a late season rider show up. Looks chilly but sunny so good time to get in a sometimes rare December ride.
New location will be open Feb is the latest info.

Found a free wifi spot on the popular motorcycle routes local or touring? Add to the list> here
Motorcycles will still continue to pass through Belfountain on their way to The Shed (or the Forks), so the noise levels aren't going to drop much. Today's ride to work was great-- school PD day I hear. Saturday looks almost as good for weather.

Yeah - still gonna be a meet up place - the general store next door draws as well so there will be two spots - I don't think noise was an issue at all in this and the Shed is better off with a permanent spot they own - it's a little gold mine and will be a good investment for the owner and that property is sweet.
I hope they will let people use the bathrooms in the new place. Everytime I've gone there was a sign on the bathroom that it was out of order.
It usually wasn't - you just got unlucky - that said it was a POS building anyway and the bathroom a bit of a joke.

PS: I'll still ride through bellfountain, but now I won't be spending any money there. Not my loss.

Radar traps will make a killing on the 50kmh stretch just east of Erin.

Not like they didn't make money on the 40 kph stretch just west of Belfountain

So who is riding up for last day on Dec 1st?? They are staying open late and the weather looks dry but chilly.
Just east of Erin... and just west of Belfountain.... is the same stretch of road.
I wonder how accepting the people in Erin are/going to be?

I would say that all depends upon who unidiotic the riders are.

I don't think it is going to be a problem as I can't imagine it ever being busy. People went to the shed because they were in Belfountain and the only game around, Erin has a Tim's and a Coffee time. I have bought coffee at the shed because I was in Belfountain but probably will never vist the Erin location. This has been tried in Erin a few times and failed every time.
Will be there.

Last day in Belfountain
see ya at the new place in April - have a nice winter riders...
sounds like macdoc is going to cry. this location, back in the 50's used to be an indian dealer ship, bikers will always go there, what ever the store is. just buy your pet food there and you can park for free.
ummmmm you got anything constructive to add ?
a) people know the trivia of the place
b) I like the people there so glad they have a new location
c) take the puerile comments to kindergartenwith you..maybe they will teach you some manners.....
