I assume there are a LOT of gas stations on that route, affecting your choice.
You really need to buy a GAS tank for that thing.

Have a good ride.

I'd love to go up the back of Mobley to get to Crowfoot but it's a long, brushy, tight ride. Probably not so good on a 300km day.
We can easily ride down to Scotch Creek on FSRs and ride up the front of Crowfoot. That's big bike friendly and lots of fun.
I would also suggest SunPeaks to Adams Lk as part of the route?
I'll get the maps out and see what the distances really are. How far can the JokerPooFlinger go between gas stations?

Hopefully we will have time for a short fire and hotdog stop somewhere. Everyone plan on being out ALL day!
I'll edit this and add that although I hope it's a long day, I also hope it to be a big bike friendly day and there's no reason that all kinds of bikes can't come along.
(Ray, how about the Sheep Trail on the Norge?)

Hey DR650:
I was in the same boat - I just broke down and bought 3 months more insurance. Now I can ride on Christmas Day - Ya who!
But when shopping for insurance thelady said a one day permit costs around $27 bucks - unlimited kms! You can go in a couple days prior in buy your permit for the day you want to ride.
So .... See ya on the 11th bud!

OK, here's a possible route. It is almost all gravel/dirt. It is big bike friendly - you can bring the buffalos. It has the Momich valley in as requested. I've been on all of this so we shouldn't get too lost.
The yellow is the main route. The purple shows a couple of options.
The main route is 370km. It is 170km from Scotch Crk (gas) around the loop and back to Scotch Crk.
I didn't add in Crowfoot as it would be too long a day. Depending on the bikes that show up, we can discuss Crowfoot as an option on ride day.
Yer thoughts and comments are welcome. :hf::hf:
