The Forks of the Credit is a Provincial park which is great for hiking. It also hosts a nice twisty road (also called the Forks of the Credit) that motorbikers and sportscar drivers like

...and cops like to camp out there too...so let's be careful. I don't want to be the 6 o'clock leading story of 30 Porsches being impounded

The tour will be two hours +/- and does not includes the Fork because it is way too congested on Sundays.

BIMMERMIKE,

I'll give it my best shot. I am "on call" on Sun, but things have not been out of control for a while now so it looks good.

Hope to see you there.

Cheers,
Michael

The Coffee Bean - Highway 10 & Olde Baseline Road

There's a small, two-pump gas station, two bay garage and attached to it the small "Coffee Bean". And visible from the Coffee Bean across the road is Inglewood Estates subdivision.

EDIT: Phil, this was in his younger days

Caledon, the easiest way to get there would be get on the 410 North and take it all the way until it ends at Mayfield Road

Turn left on Mayfield Road (you can only turn left or right, follow Mayfield Road you'll pass Heartlake Road then Kennedy Road)

Then after Kennedy Road is Highway 10, turn right onto Highway 10-you'll pass Old School Rd, King Street (stoplight,there's an Esso [91 octane]here, SMALL used car dealer, convenience store), Boston Mills Road then Olde Baseline Road (stoplight)

Where the 410 ends at Mayfield Road is an allnew recently built connection and the intersection at Mayfield Road & Highway 10 is under construction as well.

Also at Mayfield Road & Highway 10 is a Sunoco Gas Station with 94 Octane.
