A Look Back at Past Events

2024 Tour Photos

The Canton Lions Clubs 5th annual “Fall Tour Of The Mountains” Adventure Bike Ride was an epic weekend! We had the nicest weather weekend here in north central Pennsylvania that we have had all year - clear skies and 75 degrees.

We had 87 registered riders - Saturday's routes were 91 miles in the morning through the rural roads of northern Bradford and Tioga Counties ending up at ride HQ with our famous lunch prepared by the Canton Lions Club Members. The Saturday afternoon ride was 55 miles, ending back at our ride HQ where dinner and refreshments were served. At 7:00 pm we were entertained by the Motorcycle Skills Events which include a slow bike race and a plank ride. The slow bike race was won by Lockhaven's Nick Mantzoros and the plank ride was won in a ride off by Canton's Jordan Andrus.

Campfires, pit bike racing, and story telling at the Campgrounds in back of ride HQ ran late into the evening, with some folks opting for late night refreshments at Jimmy's Park Hotel and Brewing Company a short walk down the street.

Sundays Self-Guided ride of 102 miles took riders south thru the forest and back roads of Lycoming and Sullivan Counties.

This year's ride was to benefit the Trout Run Volunteer Fire Co. in Trout Run, Pennsylvania. This organization lost their firehouse in the devastating August flood that tore through their town. $3,500 was raised from the ride.

Here is a look at the first "point of interest" on the Saturday ride. It is located in Roaring Branch, only 6 miles into the ride. 

October 2020 Inaugural Ride

The ride started and ended in downtown Canton in the municipal parking lot. We started registration at 8:00 am and the first ride started at 10:00 am. It was an absolute perfect weather day by the way! 72 degrees not a cloud in the sky! We ended up with 57 riders.

The event was broken into 2 rides.
The riders were all given a map and a “cue sheet” showing the route, along with the route markers at all of the turns.

The morning ride left downtown Canton and went up over Lake Hill, up onto Wheelerville Mountain via Williams Hollow Road, across the mountain and the back road into Shunk. The first “Fireman's Poker Run Stop” was in Shunk where riders picked up their first card. It was set up at the motorcycle legend Ed Fishers Garage, which is a motorcycle destination in itself, where 95 year old former National Motorcycle Champion Ed Fisher lives. Ed was there to give a tour of his collection of vintage motorcycles. It was outstanding!  From there we made our way East onto back roads across the mountain and down onto the Shrader Creek Road and into historic Laquin, then up over the mountain to Sun Fish Pond County Park. The Canton Lions Club served its complimentary Hotdog and Hamburgers and there was another Fireman's Poker Run Stop. Then down the mountain and backroads back into Canton.  61 miles 

The afternoon ride left town at 1:30 pm and went up the South end of Armenia Mountain and across the mountain down into Covert and down the mountain into Troy. To loop back we went back up the mountain and across the East side of the mountain and back down into Canton. 42 miles

The riders were amazed! 
We had riders from New Jersey, Rochester, Watkins Glen, State College, Reading, Harrisburg, Scranton, Lock Haven and others and everyone was amazed at the beauty.
