    Anyone interested in doing some light dualsport rides in the belwood area? My first bike in 20 years and excited to get out as soon as possible.

    Want to start off with dirt roads and easier trails and pavement stuff to get my feet wet before anything too crazy!:D (F800Gs)

    I have done lots of riding in north Wellington Country and south Grey County. If you haven't already, get a back road map book; it'll come in handy.

    I'm in Orangeville. You might check out the casual ride section over at the ODSC. There is also a rumor that there will be a big bike friendly route on the Bethany (Ontario Dual Sport Club) ride this year. Up to Creemore is a nice ride too.

    I'm up for some gravel or no winter maintenance roads up your way or even a little further north, say Mount Forest or Durham. Sent you a pm.

    Any other local riders looking to do some casual dual sport rides or some planned 1/2 day trips on Sundays or something?

    We (the Ontario Adventure Riders :lol3) occasionally meet up at Belfountain and do a run to Creemore along the escarpment and maybe loop over blue mountain and down the beaver valley, etc. keep an eye on the GTA and KW threads. Post there for a meet up ...and who knows. Belfountain is a good central meet up though and I go right through Bellwood on the way.

    Grew up in Toronto during the week and on weekends we would be on the farm just west of Luther Marsh.

    My dad didn't believe in cottages.:tough
