Napanee ATV CLUB

HAVE YOU GOT YOUR TRAIL PASSES YET?..........THE NEW PASSES & MAPS ARE COMING!

Welcome to our MEMBERS page

READY FOR THE 2008 SEASON ? WHAT RUNS WOULD YOU LIKE TO GO ON ?

Friday, October 3rd - Ompah Technical Ride

Leaving from the Sunoco at Hwy 49 and 401 at 8am and Boyer's Chev in Napanee at 8:20am, we will head north to Ompah to retrace our steps from earlier this year. Covering over 130km, there's lots of water and mud that may require your winch to be in top condition and plenty of difficult rock climbs that have become more gnarly each time we visit. This ride is not recommended for riding two-up or the faint-of-heart. However, most rock climbs can be detoured around for those who prefer not to challenge them. We will have a fire at lunch (boil-up) for hot-dogs and if you have difficulty with making 150km on a single tank, extra fuel will be a must. You should be back in Napanee by 5:30pm.

Saturday, October 4th - Fall Colours Ride

Leaving the Sunoco at Highway 49 and 401 at 8am, and Boyers Chev in Napanee at 8:20am we will trailer north of Bon Echo Park to the transformer station nearby. If you plan to meet us at the Transformer Station, the road to turn left on has a 911 number of 18376 and is north of Bon Echo Park and south of the Moosehorn Restaurant, about half a mile in on the left takes you to the station to park. We will be there by 9:30am. An easy-paced, 100km ride on hydro roads, some municipal roads and well established trails, we plan to be back on the road home by 4pm. Extra fuel required only for thirsty machines, a great ride for those riding two up wanting to enjoy the beauties of fall and we plan to have a fire at lunch.

Sunday, October 5th - Fall Colours Ride 2

Leaving Grumpies (County Rd 5 and Highway 62) at 8am we will go just north of Belleville and park at Hwy 37 and Blessington Rd. (parking lot on southwest corner) for a 130km ride to Stirling, Marmora, Elorado, Madoc and back to Corbyville. This is a smooth ride mostly along the rail bed and a few secondary roads, is enjoyable with great scenery and we are hopeful for bountiful colours through the hardwoods. We will have a fire at lunch. This ride is moderately paced, so in most cases fuel should be no problem, but can be purchased in Madoc on the return trip. You should be back at the parking lot by 4pm.

Join us for one ride or for all three, but do plan to take part!

August 11th.

A big thank-you everyone who came out on a wet morning to service the ATV park in Napanee. It looks very well groomed and taken care of around the picnic shelter and park benches. Although our MNR partners were absent... we accomplished a lot of trail maintenance. Please keep in mind that we still would like to accomplish some boardwalk/ bridge building this year. I will attempt once again to coordinate a date with the MNR.

Steve.
