I would like to announce an opportunity for BMA members to ride the Calabogie Boogie Dual Sport routes on Oct 25 and 26. I've put together a joint venture with Kevin Burnett of Rally Connex and Rob Harris and staff at CMG magazine. We are holding an invitational only GPS ride this year but have decided to open it up to any BMA member able to beg borrow or steal a Dual-Sport bike. GPS receivers will be available to rent from Rally Connex.
This ride follows the exact route that Dave and I put together for the 2008 Boogie. We will base operation at the Calabogie Highlands Golf Resort (1 877 224 4653) and tour through some of the best dual track and twisty dirt and paved roads of the region. We ride a full day on Saturday with a lunch stop at the Palmerston Motel & Restaurant in Ompah, and top it off with about a 4 hour ride on Sunday morning.
The ride will not be split into the usual "aggressive" and "stock tire" routes this year. I'd rate it somewhere in-between these two difficulty ratings as used on typical Rally Connex GPS rides. (An aggressive D-S ride is no harder than a novice trail ride)
Cost is just $40. Stay tuned to this space for more details or contact Rally Connex at rallyconnex@gmail.com
