HALIBURTON RAIL TRAIL
HALIBURTON TRAIL RIDERS


Access to the Haliburton County Rail for licensed and insured off road motorcycles was granted April 22 by the Haliburton County Council. This was a three year process involving a new club incorporation and the availability of trails liability insurance.

OFTR members will be able to use the rail trail under a stewardship agreement to be signed with the county in the next few weeks, until November 30, 2009.

The agreement will have a provision for excessive noise and a limit of 94 dB (SAE J1287) and we are training the local enforcement organizations.

TRAILS LINKAGE
 
IS STILL A PRIORITY ISSUE

The OFTR has been working with Industry, Enforcement and the Ministry of Transportation to develop a set of qualifications that would allow an off-road motorcycle, under certain conditions, to travel from one trail to another using publics roads.

The beage was awesome and the new OFR trailer looked great!

Ontario Camp of the Deaf  

Needs Your Letters

We received a letter from Derek Rumble this week. It seems they want to shut down racing at the camp.

While the OFTR is not a race organization, we know a lot of our members have attended motocamp and also compete from time to time. The OFTR will assist in this issue as much as we can without using membership dollars or hinder our current land use efforts.
