Dirt bikes

Love summer? So do we! Let’s keep it safe and fun for everyone. Dirt biking is fun — but remember, they aren’t allowed on Town roads, parks, trails or highways in Georgina. Violations may result in fines and other enforcement action. Stick to riding on private property with the owner’s permission and always gear up with a helmet and proper safety gear. Learn more at georgina.ca/DirtBikes.
