Sunday July 10 - Muskoka and Haliburton

NOTE: Please remember this is a longer ride than most of the ones on GTAM. So to keep time a little better, please make sure that you are ready to leave Innisfil by 8am with a full tank of gas - there is a Shell gas station there. Gas stops should be every 200km or so. Also please make sure you bring a lunch/snacks/water because we won't be doing the restaurant sit-down thing. If it was a shorter ride, no problem, but from a timing standpoint, it wouldn't work for this kind of a ride. I have a top case and can easily store some things for people if need be.
---------------------------------------

I'm free this Sunday and heading out to ride the Muskoka and Haliburton area. No birthday parties to attend and the weather forecast looks to be awesome!

Pace: This would be a long, but amazing day of very twisty roads and beautiful scenery - not suitable for newer riders. Pace will be fun in the corners and responsible everywhere else. I'm guessing about 1000km round trip from Mississauga for the day.

Lunch: Bring lunch/snacks and eat by nice lakes or rivers to save time on longer restaurant stops.

Route: https://goo.gl/maps/UU73pGZANbU2 I don't know if I will do this whole route - it all depends on time, but I did want to check out Livingstone Lake Rd and Kawagama Lake Rd, because I have not been on them in many years and can't remember what they are like. I vaguely remember them being awesome, but they may also be sandy and/or rough. I'm riding on pure street tires - Pilot Road 4's, so there isn't any intentional gravel on this route.

Meeting Spot: https://goo.gl/maps/6Aj2EEVw76w Innisfil Tim's @8am - hope that's not too early, but the days are long!

PM or post up if you're interested.
Cheers!

Yeah it might be a bit early, but then you get to ride more nice roads while it's cooler out:)... and shady stops for breaks only.
I might cut out a few of the early roads to make sure the nice ones in Halliburton get checked out.
 
Hi Shane,
I am interested in joining... let me see if I can get away for most of the day on sunday. I'll get back to you
