found at this link (parking article).
Be ready to ride at the Markdale CP Rail Trail parking lot at 10am (registration 9am).
Trail Route: DGATV’s trails are a mix of public and private properties including the rail trail
and some road running. The trails are considered easy and family friendly.
Participants: This ride is open to OFATV members and non-members.
A day pass for non-members cost $30. Memberships ($195) are available for purchase online and day passes
will be available for purchase at the event.
Side-by-sides are welcome.
Passengers are asked to make a donation to the charity organization.
For young operators, aged 12 to 16, the ATV should be sized appropriately for
the child’s weight. The child must be accompanied by an adult on the trail.
Legally, the child cannot ride on the road without a valid Ontario driver’s license
(G2/M2). DGATV does not condone young operators riding on the roads.
Bring your own lunch. As with any ride, it is advisable to dress appropriately and have extra
fuel, drinking water, snack, drinks, rain gear, bug spray, basic repair tools,
bandaids, compass, map and cell phone on hand. Note that there may not be
cell service in the area.
Know where you are on the trail at all times.
We look forward to seeing you on the trail and hope you have a great ride!
DGATV’s rides typically run 10am until 4pm but it depends on the spirit of the
riders. You are, of course, free to leave at any time but please let your Warden
guide know.
