Northern Ontario Rally
SEPT 18,19,20. ( date is flexible within a week ) i would like to invite any one that can make it to spend a weekend of riding and mostly socializing at my camp on DOG LAKE. if you are looking for some easy gravel roads and some tarmac then you can ride with me. if you want trails and serious off road adventure then i hope some one else can lead a group ride. i suck on dirt and need help with the ride part of the rally. I'll take care of food and beer ( KEG OF STELLA??). THE CAMP CAN SLEEP ABOUT 9 GUYS. IF YOU ARE COMING AS A COUPLE THERE IS A ROOM WITH A DOUBLE BED. ALL OTHER BEDS ARE SINGLE. SOME OF US WILL HAVE TO SHARE ROOMS BUT I HAVE MATTRESSES FOR 9 PEOPLE.bring a tent if you like. we have a bathroom and a sauna and a big lake to wash up in. if you would like to come please post here .i know we have lot's of time but the sooner i know then the better. if you have a V-strom OR ANY OTHER MORE ROAD ORIENTED ADVENTURE BIKE, THEN THIS RALLY WOULD BE GREAT FOR YOU.there are lot's of trails and gravel roads around thunder bay and that is where the riding will take place. plan is to ride around during the day and return to camp for the evening , breakfast and dinner at the camp but lunch will be on the road. let me know if there is any interest.

Dog Lake
I forgot to mention my camp is about 30 to 40 minutes away from thunder bay. it's very easy to get to and the road is mostly tarmac all the way there .To make more interesting you can also take SILVER FALLS ROAD which is mostly gravel but very easy to do .

Hi Northrider,
If my work schedule stays the same I'll be able to make it. ZZR_Ron is on the same schedule as me for now, but that might not last. Steve |

I can't see why I wouldn't go. Missed meeting up with you the other day Northrider so this can be my second chance. Hopefully a few Icebreaker riders can show up.
If anyone south of here wants to overnight in Wawa on the way let me know.

North Rider, whats the GPS coordinates of your camp on Dog Lake? I looked at the lake on Google Earth and it is pretty big. The cottages are mostly on the south part of the lake shore. Real nice lake. Is that a trailer park at the end of the Dog Lake Rd.? Is there a gas pump there?
