Canadian sources are best for Canadian weather: both Radar and forecasts from Environment Canada are more accurate although less glitzy than the US counterparts. For hyper-accurate weather learn how to read aviation weather forecasts
I'm not sure if I'll join in yet, but just in case, is there a meeting spot along the route for those of us farther north?

Couple of us from Barrie were gonna join the ride just east of Orrilia, but not sure if I can do Sunday as of yet.

Next weekend I'm kid and wife free.
This ride is still on for Sat, not officially changed to Sunday!!
That said I may be/not-be going to the "Guns" ride Sunday, but all an all, if weather does not help Sat, consider this ride cancelled with reschedule for another weekend to give people time to schedule for it.
With the above in mind, some of us don't mind going up Algonquin on Sunday, but that is all up in mid-air.

Still gonna rain up there.. 75% and up on the POP... Sunday is looking like the day to do this. I have never been up there so if a group is going on sunday I will come for that. I already have a range membership and my own guns so I would rather go riding up north.

Gooderham ontario is in the middle of the ride, pretty much our entire day is around this town.. They show an 80% chance from 5am to 7pm.
Other people's opinion please
Well Im taking another 250 rider on it Sunday who has never done it, so the pace will be pretty relaxed for anyone else that wants to come ( she's a relatively new rider ). Sunday is looking beautiful, with a high of 31.
9am..
Is this a different ride or this ride pushed to sunday? Either way I would want to come (if you don't mind).. I really need to check out this area..
Good to know.. anything else you think is worth bringing? should I bother with off? Will we get swarmed by bugs if we stop for fuel or food? Sorry if the questions seem retarded, I have never been..
Expect a long day on the bike. I personally don't carry much:
1) Camelpack / backpack, is tiny / red with a few pockets

2) An ontario map.. I have gps but I know this can fail at any time.
3) Wet naps, I always keep a few of this from St. Louis (bugs are crazy )
I also carry around a little cloth to clean my visor only.

4) little army knife with tools
5) cell / wallet .. etc etc..
5) some cookies
6) 20 bucks cash minimum.. I've had moments when I need to pay for gas n damn machine is not working.
good night rest, cuz this ride hungover is a *****!
Ride Cancelled!
Hey everyone,
Is with great sadness that I will let mother nature take this one. I know this can be a long and hard ride and the chances or rain are way more than I myself can personally endure.
We will hope to reschedule this to another Sat, I am not rescheduling this to Sunday (sorry), but I may be hitting this roads Sunday. Some people are thinking to go Sunday (read thread) I have provided a few with the route Draft, while others have different rides in mind.
Ride safe!
