October Dualsport/Big Bike Ride?

Cross posted to the Dirt/Dual Sport Thread:
Is anyone up for a gravel rip this coming Saturday, September 26? Edit: Changed to Oct 3rd or 4th depending on weather forecast.
We'd meet at the Shell near Innisfill at 9am: https://goo.gl/maps/Ug3ZNiDu9Gq
It would be a bit of slab, then a lot of gravel, logging roads, maybe some rail trail and double track unmaintained roads. I haven't ridden all of the route, but got it from reliable sources.
Big bike do-able, preferably with somewhat aggressive dual-sport tires unless you are experience and confident running street tires on gravel (may be loose, might be sand).
It would be a long run with few breaks, and long stretches between fuel stops, so if your bike is short range (like a DRZ or KLX), then think about bringing spare fuel (MSR bottle, Rotopax, whatever).
Route looks something like this, post if interested.
