 SIMCOE COUNTY FOREST
In the fall of 2005, there was a proposed ban of off-road motorcycles in SimcoeCounty forests.The main reasons were noise and irresponsible riders.The OFTR joined the Simcoe County Forest Advisory Committee (SCFAC) and negotiated access for off-road motorcycles under the Simcoe County Forest Recreation Policy. A local club was formed (SCORRA) and the OFTR has funded signage, patrol supplies and third party liability insurance naming the County as additional insured. The OFTR recently invested $168,000 for signs, staging areas and GPS plotting using fudns from the National Trails Coalition. Below is an interactive google map that indicates where the staging areas (parking lots) for approved OFTR Members
Simcoe County was the first riding area in Ontario where OFTR membership is a requirement by law.Members are identified by the OFTR sticker and membership card. Enforcement is actve is this area.
OFTR members appreciate the hard work and stewardship that SCORRA and HORRA have put into creating and preserving Simcoe County trails.
