SSITT & Camp Out 2015!!!! Dufferin Forest Trails.
This years Sausage Suit Individual Time Trial just like last year includes the option to stay around after the race, bring your BBQ, pitch your tent (or trailer, or Van!) , have dinner then enjoy the evening around a campfire. Sing some songs, enjoy trail stories and meet some new people! If you have bike lights, why not bring those as well, you never know, maybe a night ride may happen!
We have use of a large grassy area with plenty of room to camp for the evening after the race. And it’s free with your entry fee!
Registration will open soon: http://eco-race.com/eco-race/Sausage_Suit_ITT.html
The premise of the SSITT is an individual start with 30 seconds between each rider….no mass start, no crowds! This also means lots ‘o single track, not so much double track. Options for the Bike are 15km or 30km (approx.).
Don’t feel like riding that weekend, training for a running event? Dan (substance projects) has got you covered….also available is a 15km (approx.) trail run. Same fun single track course, just on foot! That should give everyone something to do.
The course will be a single lap (15km) or two laps (30km) of the single track exclusively in Dufferin Forest.

Dufferin Forest Management Plan – Public Meeting
You are invited to attend a public meeting on the development of a new twenty-year management plan for the 2,600 acre Dufferin County Forest:
Tuesday, June 17 at 7:00 p.m.
Mel Lloyd Centre – Auditorium
167 Centre Street (Entrance D)
Shelburne, Ontario
The County Forest is made up of thirteen tracts located throughout Dufferin County. The plan will guide the use and management of the Dufferin County Forest over the next twenty years (2015-2035) to ensure the health and viability of this community resource.
The Forest Plan Advisory Team, which has been advising the County throughout the development of the draft plan, is holding this open public meeting to hear input regarding the draft forest management plan, draft recreation policy, and the OFTR proposal for access to the Forest by off-road motorcycles. This is an additional opportunity for any members of the public to have input on the recreational and other uses of the forest.
Documents relating to the Dufferin County Forest Management Plan are found here.
Written input regarding any of the items mentioned above can be provided to the County Forest Manager at any time between now and July 31, 2014:
By email: forestmanager@dufferinmuseum.com
By mail: Dufferin County Forest (c/o DCMA)
936029 Airport Road, Mulmur, Ontario L9V 0L3
By fax: 705-435-9876
A good show from the MTB community at all the upcoming meetings would be beneficial.
Thanks and see you there,
Johnny
