You are right, North is where the goods rds are.

But what I got from your original post is that all rds suck. Which would be incorrect ;)

Is there a race track in Barrie? Mother in law retired in Huntsville and looking for a reason to haul a bike out there.

Biga, haven't been on the forum much between work, blossoming novice race addiction (with a short summer here) and a T-C to ride. Wife just went to Tamagami for 2 weeks but alas, too short staffed to take any vacation and join her.

Hey Sonnythebull (I am sure there is a story behind that name!). Specifically looking for one close to Huntsville (Mother in law). As I was raised on a cattle ranch in Alberta and live near the mountains here, I am fighting a losing battle to spend more time in my wife's native Ontario. A track near Huntsville would make that time a little more enjoyable. That is why the question on Barrie or other tracks close enough to Huntsville for a day out racing and be able to travel back there.

Thanks!

There are no tracks close to Huntsville, however there are a lot of great roads up there.

Send me a quick PM, and will hook up for sure.

Hey Guys,

Just ordered my 1098S from a dealer in Detroit. Could resisit the price difference.
Have been very happily riding my 1200GS for 3 years and getting plenty of off-road fun but could not stop thinking i need a sport bike as well. So picked the best I think. Should have it here in Oakville within the week. Has been quite a while since I have been riding a sport bike, so once i get the hang of it will look forward to ride with some guys who can show me what this fantastic machine can reallly do.

Later
