Last Muskoka run, we met up at the McD's in Orangeville there at Hwys 10 & 9 and convoyed from there.
We can do Southwood Road, and I've got a couple of other ideas to add yet.
Even better if Muskoka Minute could join us, it's his backyard.

Steve, I would like to join you guys, but already have plans for next Sunday, hopefully next time I can make it.

We are up to 3 Pcars....anyone else want to join the convoy? Looks like it's going to be a great day for some twisty roads with the top down!

Heiko 09-21-2016 04:06 AM

Would love to join you guys but I'm cruising the roads in New Hampshire around Mount Washington :)

Muskoka Minute 09-21-2016 08:51 AM

I think I should be able to make it if I get my sons car fixed.

Here is a google map link of a run that you might like.

It is approx. 2 hours and approx. 140k
I figured to leave from tims in Bracebridge (I put homedepot) they are beside each other.
Either have lunch in Port Carling or Windermere.
Back down to Bracebridge.
This can be extended or shortened.

Here is the link. Hope it works.

The Loop is correct but the written directions are not in order.

Cheers!
Bart

BoxsterSteve 09-21-2016 12:06 PM

Bart,
Thanks for the link.
Hope you can join us.

Muskoka Minute 09-21-2016 03:48 PM

What time do you think you'll be in Bracebridge?
Or are you thinking of coming this far?

BoxsterSteve 09-22-2016 03:26 PM

Looking at 10:30 ETA in Bracebridge, according to Mapquest.
Are you good to run with us, Bart? Looking forward to getting out.

Muskoka Minute 09-22-2016 03:28 PM

Won't know until Saturday night.
We are working on the car tomorrow and sat.
Let's touch base Saturday night.
Cheers

Giller 09-22-2016 07:15 PM

If you can't make it, we'll most likely still do the run you posted. The loops itself looks to be around a 2 hour drive? If so, that would put us back in Bracebridge around lunch time. Any suggestions as to good places to eat?

I'm going to try and meet you guys on Sunday.
Did you say that you would be 10:30 at Tim Horton's?

You have a few option's for lunch....
You could stop in Windermere which would be around noon.

In Bracebridge you have Boston Pizza, Nick's, The Old Station.

If you like Boston Pizza I would head to Gravenhurst and take Muskoka Beach Rd down. This is a nice Rd to drive also, and its in the right direction.

Here is a good run that will take us from Home Depot/Tim Hortons in Bracebridge to Boston Pizza in Gravenhurst.

Can someone give me a call to confirm the meet time?

Cheers!

robbiex1 09-23-2016 08:30 AM

Hey guys, I'm interested, where and when exactly are we meeting in the GTA?

Giller 09-23-2016 11:07 AM

Hey Robbie. Plan right now is BoxsterSteve and I are meeting up in Orangeville around 8am and then heading up to Bracebridge, hopefully to connect with Muskoka.

Not sure where you are and where a good spot would be. Steve - are we taking the back roads or heading right over to the 400 to go North?

I'm sure we can find a spot on the 400 somewhere where we could meet up?

robbiex1 09-23-2016 11:16 AM

Thanks I'm not sure about the timing. I'll talk to the family tonight to see if I can swing this. I'm in Markham so could either go west to meet or meet up there. Do you plan on taking interesting roads on the way North or just the 400?

BoxsterSteve 09-23-2016 11:32 AM

Via Hwy 9 & 11 is 2 hours from Orangeville to Bracebridge.
Via Hwy 400 & 118 is over 2 1/2 hours and and extra 50-60 km.
I'm good with either, but it will obviously affect Bracebridge ETA if we go the scenic route.
To avoid highways altogether takes you via Minden and Carnarvon, a bit too far out of the way, methinks.

Giller 09-23-2016 12:49 PM

Most of the interesting roads will be in the Muskoka's. Normally getting there is half the fun, but in this case, the plan is to get there as quick as possible and THEN let the fun begin!

COJO 09-24-2016 03:48 AM

Hello Guys. I am In Barrie and would enjoy a ride if you are open to another guest. THX
