Unless I am reading something wrong, the price for antique is $325 for the upcoming season.

Antique is considered 2005 or older. If Quebec is like Ontario there are quite a few locals and young guys riding older sleds as there trail sled. That fact may have been part of the pricing decision.

Yup. I am more than willing to pay. I just don't want anymore preventable unfounded trail closures.

I'm not promoting higher prices...but ..when I buy out of state hunting and fishing licenses to use some other state or countries resources...I always have to pay more than the local residents do...and I understand that...for a sport that is facing escalating costs and labor to maintain status quo...it puzzles me to understand how and why non residents are not charged a higher rate for access to what we all consider the very finest trial system on the planet. At this point everyone understands what it costs to operate and maintain this sport we all love ...and the last thing we want to do is financially operate like a government ...AKA...in the red...we all know that's the day it's over...and we don't want to go there...nothing wrong with having a little money in the bank

At 30 percent exchange...this season pass for US riders is one of the best deals on the planet...unless we get a reciprocal tariff added on...which I would completely understand...hell a day of skiing is 300 dollars these days ...

The chart posted above 12 hours ago is for this past season. @iceman reported on 31 May 2025 that proposition 2 was adopted for the 2025-2026 season....

This price chart is not even close to any of the three proposed ones, where did they get it if no one voted for it? The 325$ proposed price for antique category is now 400$ that is a big difference. I like the 415$ for the Oct 1st category tho!

The paddler has arrived home. she is having problems signing on to QR i will try to help her get it sorted. for Kayak Rentals she gave me two spots https://natureaventure.ca/hebergement-matapedia/ https://cimeaventure.com/ She recommended the second one strongly they are well organized with shuttles to bring you up river and it’s gorgeous scenery surely a nice stop on a spyder ride.

Wow Mrs Ice, great adventure and wonderful pictures. Wife and l hope to travel the Gaspe on our Spyders in August. My wife is an avid kayaker. Is there any place you came across on your travels that rents kayaks ?

Very nice Adventure. 👍

Mrs Ice paddle board Gaspe/New Brunswick 2025 What a wonderful journey that is coming to an end. For the second year in a row, I started my vacation in Gaspésie. I left on June 24, sleeping in my car and paddling almost every day. The river water here is crystal clear and cool! There are lots of rapids in all the rivers, one of the main reasons people come here. Many people join in and leave as they please, and that's pure happiness. It's all about simplicity and spontaneity! Here is my itinerary for the last few days, accompanied by a jumble of photos and videos! June 24: Drive to Campbellton, NB. June 25: Descended a small section of the Kegwick River, beautiful, wild, clear water, brown bottom, whitewater (16 km). June 26: paddled down the little Cascapédia River, 20 km in the morning, where my partner put his fin on backwards and forgot his paddle at the bottom of the river in his car! 😂 The water is crystal clear, with several rapids and a threshold that got the better of me this year! June 27: departure for my first real SUP camping trip with my big bag and everything on the Bonaventure River. Thanks to Michael for coming to take us to Big West. 37 km to go to reach our campsite. R2-R1 and whitewater! It's not the same riding with a big camping bag, but I adjusted quickly—I had no choice! 😄 Thanks to Sylvain Bélanger for introducing me to it! June 28: We packed up our camp to meet Cindy at the St. Alphonse footbridge. We have 3.5 km to go. The meeting was at 10 a.m. With 22 km to go to get to the car, we had a strong headwind, gusting to 45 km/h after lunch until the end! 😩 No choice! Then we meet up with the rest of the gang! June 29: It's raining, so we find something else to do. We had breakfast at Tim Hortons and chatted for a while.. After a few stops, we hit the road to join the others in St-Florence. June 30: Descent of the Causapscale and Matapédia! It started off steep, with some doubts, good rapids, lots of rocks, but it was a great discovery! 32.2 km on this magnificent day! July 1: descent of the Nouvelle River, 27 km. A fairly technical river due to log jams here and there. You really have to be careful and sometimes take the flat route (less water or less current) to stay safe! We had our first mishap with a fisherman who kicked someone's board and caused them to fall into the water in the rapids. Pretty normal, the river belongs to everyone! You have to understand that in Gaspésie, it's salmon fishing country! We have to preserve good relations. When we approach a fisherman, we blow our whistle and ask him which side of the river he wants us to pass on! It's always worked well, except today! 🙈 So tomorrow, my little last one, which I repeat because it's magnificent, the little Cascapédia! Then I'll go home with a full heart, an empty head, and a charmed spirit! Lots of laughter too!! 🤣🤣

Happy Canada day WNG-2 and to all of the Quebecrider members on both sides of our border.

Good morning Quebec Riders, Happy Canada Day to our Canadian Members and Friends. I registered my sled this morning, and made a donation to Quebec Rider Dot Com. Have a good day.

Here too in mass...but there is a threat of Sunday being nice...may take the day off and ride my bike in the AM and mow lawns in the afternoon

Here in Southern Maine also.

It's another rainy Saturday here 🌧️

A group of us were at Grand Nature in the Gaspe last Thursday night, the owner was struggling 3 days before the official opening to find enough staff. I realize it is a different type of place and geographical location then Repos. However finding good workers to come and stay for multiday shifts, or drive in on remote roads is a huge challenge. There is certianly not the bike traffic in the summer saddlebagging to create the business sleds do in the winter.
