WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE
BETWEEN TOURS ON DIRTBIKES, ATVS, DUAL SPORT BIKES AND TRIALS?
Dirtbikes and ATVs are limited to just riding trails in the forest.
ATVs generally ride on wider trails, although Dirtbikes use wide
trails as well. Dual Sport riders have the ability to access public
roads and can travel longer distances. Trials bike riding is very
specialized since the motorcycle is designed for slow speeds and
very technical riding.
WHAT IS A TYPICAL DAY AT TRAIL TOURS LIKE?
At 9:00 a.m. when you arrive, you will be asked to sign waivers
and attend a riders meeting. After getting dressed in proper
motorcycle gear, all riders will be divided into groups based on
ability and experience. If you don't know how to ride, we will give
you a riding lesson in the morning and then take you on a tour in
the afternoon. If you already know how to ride, you will spend all
day on the trails. Advanced instruction is also available upon request.
Breaks are scheduled throughout the day as well as a large group
lunch. All riding ends at 3:00 p.m. At this time you are asked to
return all equipment and lucky for you, we do the laundry.
WHAT DOES THE LUNCH
CONSIST OF?
Lunch is a variety of fresh fruit, vegetables, and submarine sandwiches.
Your sub is custom made just the way you like it. There are delicious
home made cookies and deserts also available. Eat all you like and
enjoy some time bench racing (telling tales about how good a rider
you are) with your friends. We are vegetarian friendly. Food allergies
should be noted when booking a date.
WHAT ARE THE TRAILS
LIKE?
With a special permit, we ride 11000 acres of beautiful conservation
area that is the Ganaraska forest. Depending on your ability, you
may encounter a variety of terrain. Everything from sand, gravel,
rocks, loam, hills, valleys, fields, forests and more. The trails
range in size from being 12 feet wide to 1 foot wide single-track
(only enough room for a single vehicle). Dual Sport
rides have even more variation because they also traverse roads.
WHERE ARE YOU LOCATED?
We are located one hour east of Toronto, just 20 minutes south of
Peterborough. Once we receive your reservation deposit, we will
provide detailed directions to our facilities.

WHEN ARE YOU OPEN?
We are open for business between April 1 and October 31.
DO I NEED A MOTORCYCLE
LICENSE?
No, unless you are going to take part in a Dual Sport tour.
