This will be a longer ride, ~6 hours round. I'm going all the way to Thornbury (Georgian Bay) via Hockley Valley and then Beaver Valley.

If anyone wants to cut it in half, I'll be making a stop in Shelburne after finishing River Rd., it's easy to follow Hwy 10 (Hurontario) back home from there.

Pace will be moderate but 125s not recommended - there are a lot of climbs.
No M1s please either as this is a longer ride, a little technical at times, may use a 400 series hwy to go back.

Departing at 9am from Mayfield/Hurontario Tim Hortons (11980 Hurontario St., Brampton).
I'm on a red 1st gen SV650.

As of now, looks like 25+ and sunny.

I will go if you leave early in the morning.

I set the time for 9am but moved the departure point more out of the city, closer to where the route starts.

 

[frekeyguy]

Just not 20 crazy guys who will wheelie all the way up north please.

And if anyone else wants to come please post here, don't just show up. I'd rather not have a huge group because it's hard to control that.

Im in for at least half if I dont need to work. I probably do though.

 

[Hi RPM]

dooont worry, we will behave... while we are off the bikes........ lol

Good, your avatar and username are intimidating.

How many guys would you potentially bring with you?

 

[Dinh250R]

I'm most likely in. That's early enough, I'll leave my house at 7

 

[Hi RPM]

DemonPig, it will be 2 maxxx!! it could even turnout that it will just be 1
i dont like big groups either, so ill keep the number down
my username and avatar are intimidating.. maan you should see what i ride then lol

 

[DemonPig]

Well, I'm sure I can't keep up with your supercharged and stretched Busa but I had a CBR900RR and was forced to sell it due to high insurance. My SV650 is 1/3 of the price.
Was very sad to let it go.

You can bring more people if you like. I just want to keep track. So far only looks like 5-6 guys anyway.
As long as we got no more than 12 we're fine.

Hey I'm in... Long rides with twisties turn me on

 

[Tiggy]

Yayy no work. I am in for sure if i dont drink to much and sleep in. I would rather ride. Going to have to get up early to make it up there for 9 am. Anyone leaving from in the city let me know, Im leaving from the leslie lakeshore area if anyone wants to ride up to bramladesh with me for 9.

 

[DemonPig]

Okay, so the ride is on. Come fueled up.

Looks like a warm day, I wish I had textile pants still instead of 3 pairs of leathers...

 

[Brian P]

Hmmm, considering I was going to go in that direction anyway ... In. I have to be back a bit earlier, but I know my way around.

 

[Magoo]

Joining late. I'll be there.

 

[Brian P]

That was a most excellent way to spend the day.

 

[DemonPig]

I concur.

Although some *** almost made me crash right by my house. Pulled out in from of me from a side street. I hit the brakes, started skidding all over but managed to keep the bike upright. That was the closest I've ever been to dropping the bike.

Regardless, it was a great day! Thanks and let me know for that camping trip.

 

[Magoo]

Yes and thanks for leading guys. I had a small mishap myself. I went to Canadian Tire and tried to make a sharp turn into the first parking spot and my rear tire hit the curb and I dropped the bike. Inattention on my part probably because of fatigue. The exhaust is a little dented but otherwise ok. But yah thanks again.
