I am considering organizing this myself this year but need some interest from one or two guys local to my target area.
1) I am aiming for Sturgeon Falls. It's located 20ish minutes west of North Bay. The reason for this is I will probably have access to a garage in Cache Bay if it is needed for any repair/tuning work(Still need to talk to the owner to confirm).
2) There is a Comfort Inn located in Sturgeon Falls with a pool that should be able to accomadate future growth. I have NOT contacted this hotel for a group rate yet.
3) Yamaha dealers in Verner and North Bay(at least I think North Bay, seems to change yearly).
4) 95% date of Feb 27-mar 1 weekend. This would only change if I discover that a poker run or similar event is planned for the area on that date.
5) I would like to have at least 1 guy familiar with the local area for boondocking. The trails are fairly straight forward and I should have 1 guy(dude with the garage, just moved there in summer 2007) plus myself(I've been through the area twice) for on trail info.
I really would like to see this happen this year but need a little help in the areas mentioned above. This ride will probably start out small, but could grow quite rapidly in the years to come with some commitments now.
If you can see any possible problems with any of the above, air them out here, but I'm pretty firm on location at this point.

I'm IN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Any Ideas of making the trip earlier if snow conditions aren't as expected? I'm not from that local Area, so I'm of no help pertaining to the trails/boondocking.
Also Does this have to be a Yamaha ONLY trip? I know about 20-30+ guys looking for an Ontario ride. But they don't all ride Yamaha's. LMK, Nik!

I live about 40 minutes west of Sturgeon Falls. May be interested if the date doesn't conflict with the NBSSR radar runs up here in the north.. My son and I plan to run the entire series this season. I know one of the other menbers on this site that works at the dealer in Verner and lives there aswell.. I'll speak with him and check on the trails in that area.. Good luck with this!! It would be a good time..

I am in as well, providing it does not conflict with my racing. I will be riding my stock trail SRX. 
The sooner you guys can tell me the race dates for the end of Feb, the better.
Anybody know when any of the clubs do thier poker runs?

We will probably not know the dates until January.
Hmmmm, well, I guess that means I'll have to pick and hope.

I'm familiar with the NB area. There's THE MOZY ON INN and FANNY'S. Oh and the trail's to. I would make this trip. Most of the club activities I know of are usually in and around the Bay area.
TYcoop. I'm actually in McGregor, not Windsor. Where abouts in Essex???

if the garage is open, stop for a beer. I mean it. I'm @##$% with sleds all the time. If a red mega cab diesel is in the drive come on in.TYcoop said:

How many hours TRAILERING 2 sleds from CHICAGO????
I think going through the "soo" would be easier... The border crossing in Port Huron cost me around 3208.00 a few months ago...... It kinda left a BAD taste in my mouth... But I suppose if I WASN'T doing wrong,,, they would have NOT CAUGHT ME!!!!
I remember that 'crossing' story.
