A day in Dufferin ! Friendly cyclist that moved their cars seeing me stuggle with the trailer! Thanks Mark for back it up for me! Boo did his 27.2 Miles and was a champ with all the traffic out there! Sleep now ….. 43 hours
Good girl Bella Imbeault and Boo!
Whoever those cyclist were, thank you for helping out, it’s great to see everyone sharing and enjoying the forest!

Saturday Equestrian Ride Notice
August 11th, 2018 by . in EverythingPlease see the event description on the site. Have a great day!
August 11th Kolapore Ride
August 6th, 2018 by . in EverythingMonica, Tyler an Ryan are hosting a Ryan-going-off-to-University ride on August 11th.
Start time/place is at Monica’s house at 2pm. We ride from her place to Kolapore for a fun scoot in the woods then back to her place for post ride/Ryan celebrations with Monica, Taylor and Ryan! There is room for a camp out for those who would prefer not to drive home so bring your Van, tent, truck, car….
Please RSVP to me (Johnny, or Contact tab on the website) if you are coming so we have an idea of numbers for Monica as well if you plan on staying the night. Dinner is planned as a “pot luck BBQ” so if you plan on attending dinner please contact me so I can pass on what to bring. We can pester Monica at the Ravena General store for breakfast in the morning, yum! (poor Monica). I’ll pass on directions to Monica’s later to those who RSVP.
So excited to get back to Kolapore (and what a great reason, to celebrate with Monica and her sons!)…it’s such a great ride and with such great people.
Yay, Wolf Pack!
Monday Ride
August 6th, 2018 by . in EverythingLooks like a 11am start time today. Rain not expected until 3pm now so lots of time for a casual ride in the woods. See you there. Dufferin Forest.
Monday Ride
August 5th, 2018 by . in EverythingAs there is a lot of unsettled weather predicted Monday, we think we will wake up, look out the window and see what the day is suppose to bring. We’ll post a notice up if we plan to get out (it looks more like an AM ride at the moment). We’ll try and give as much notice as we can. Hope some folks will be able to make it out. Touch base Monday morning.
OTRA Equestrian Event August 3rd-6th Main tract
August 3rd, 2018 by . in EverythingHi everyone, please be aware that there is an equestrian event happening this weekend in the Main Tract. OTRA will be there August 3rd – 6th and will be conducting various rides throughout the weekend.
Please exercise caution while out there this weekend. Pay extra attention when crossing the equestrian trails as not to surprise an equestrian and their horse. If you come upon someone, please stop and speak up so the horse will become aware that you are present. If you ride with a bell, a quick ring as you are approaching the crossings would also be a good idea to alert riders. If you don’t have a bell, not a bad idea to get one!
As always be courteous and friendly.
Between everyone cooperating and paying attention I’m sure everyone will have an uneventful enjoyable weekend. It’s all about mutual understanding and respect for each other.
Enjoy your time in the Forest.
Eager Beaver Ride/Race
July 31st, 2018 by ... in LinksDan from Substance Projects is holding yet another of the Stuporcross races in Duntroon August 11th, 2018.
If you are unsure of Dan or his races, I can put it in one word…. Awesome….
Everything about the day and the event is awesome. From when you show up to register, to when you hear the start noise, to when you think you are almost done then another climb hits, to when you see the finish line, to when you collapse after a long and fun day on the bike, each and every step of that is awesome.
The Eager Beaver race is a 50, 100km, or 100 mile race / ride on mainly gravel roads through the Duntroon, Honeywood Glen Huron area, so you know it is relatively flat,….. If you think of it though, for all the climbing you do, that means there’s a lot of downhill to follow….
Date: August 11th, 2018
Location: Duntoon, ON
Why: why not…

Sunday Ride 2pm
July 27th, 2018 by . in EverythingBased on the recent amount of rain, Dufferin is the go to this weekend! Trails are in amazing condition after the rain. See you there!
Saturday Ride-3 stages!
July 18th, 2018 by . in EverythingIf the weather allows (ie no or very little rain between now and Sat) we are heading up to 3 Stages in Collingwood for a ride. This will be a bring-your-lunch length ride as we hope to get in a bit of a tour. Thinking of starting by the swim spot on the Collingwood-Clearview town line, riding along the river, then up to the top. From there Monica is going to tour us around up top then finish by heading back down then to the river for a post ride swim. Epic day! So it will be a day ride definitely not at a “hammer pace” but nice and casual. Maybe end up somewhere after at a pub for a snack and refreshments! If there are not further updates then the ride is on. I’m looking forward to this one.
11am start. See Events calendar for location details.
