Cool photos - wish we could have walked in but it was literally blocked off with construction.

Looks like a server failure here, your media link is broken. With respect PP, I find this deliciously ironic.Cool photos - wish we could have walked in but it was literally blocked off with construction.

Deloro Rd right after the Deloro mine is extremely entertaining....not for the twisties, there aren't that many, but for the elevation changes. One section is likely to give you air on your bike at around legal road speeds. There's a part that's like going down and up some giant stairs. I admit I had a huge grin on my face at these points.
If you have a bike that you feel comfortable doing packed gravel roads on then you can spend an entire day just tooling around on the backroads south of highway 7 near Tweed and Marmora. I did just that as my GPS insisted on trying to route me through a farmer's field through a locked gate. After seeing the same farm twice I headed off somewhere else.
There were quite a few fast flowing creeks in the area so I might head back there with a pan and try my luck panning for gold. I don't expect to find anything but I figure it will be a fun outing on the bike panning for gold near Eldorado. First I need to buy my Amazon gold pan...

Ohh nice thread topic. Some great ideas here I hope to explore once I get some more seat time in.
Curious do you all keep a log of your day trips to refer back to if you decide to repeat, or just for memory sake?
I've read about this someplace else and it seems like an interesting idea.

I belong to a riding club - tons of fun, and no shortage of ideas and destinations come up collectively amongst the group.
This year a lot of my destinations have been right out of this book.

I have done 101 of the 150 locations in this book this summer, including all the far northern Ontario (right up to the MB line, almost) locations. Had a TON of fun and many, many kilometers of riding with friends to accomplish it.
For anyone looking for great ideas for destination rides, this book is totally worth it. There's countless ones within a few hours of Toronto, not to mention many interesting overnight ride ideas.
I have skipped the two story toilet in Smiths Falls (I think)..
The. Buddha photos intrigued me...I did a little digging. That's going to be quite a sight when it's finished...
