motonick

Oddly enough, we did see one today on the trail coming at us. Scary, felt bad for the big moose, snow is deep, he had to muttle off the trail into the woods. He's waiting for the warm up.

On the trails today, 30 miles to go heading to matane on quebec 5 east. Snowmaster2112, Motonick, Emily and Andre. Trails are great, sun is bright, Snow is deep, the air is cold, perfect day.

Good to hear all is well and everyone is back riding. You all have overcome some serious obstacles. All i can say is wow! Picture is a nice evening sky heading into rdl Tuesday February 4th

February 5th, 2025 Another great day of riding around rdl area. Good snow, cold temperatures, great grooming make great trails. Mikerider leading the pack with motonick, padragon, and joe following. Pictures are on the 35 heading north towards the 526. By the way, the 35 was fantastically fast.

February 2, 2025 Motonick rode with Mike rider around rdl, trails were great, cold out. 200 miles in the books, back by 4 o'clock. Quiet Sunday night at the universal. A couple of big groups have arrived, otherwise pretty calm.

Thank you to all for the early trail reports with pictures. Looking forward to quebec trails in approximately 2 weeks. Been getting by in western NY and tug hill

As always, thanks for great report and pictures. It's nice to see that there are some good trail conditions. We wer up in riviere du loup 2/3-2/7/24, trails were very good. Pictures are on 2/4/24 on the sentier haricana (orange 🍊 trail) out of rdl.

(year 2019) it was a colder year. rode across river from Cacouna to the L' Isle-Vert island. very cool, it was on our way back to RDL, getting dark had to make it quick as i did not want to cross the river in darkness. River was staked with pine branches, still a little scary. http://quebecrider.com/forums/uploads/monthly_2023_02/20190303_174336.thumb.jpg.a91b999247639e46c204d508e01d7b00.jpg

Grand Riviere, at the Motel du Ravage. Bit of a strange place, rode from Murdochville, trail was getting real thin coming off the hill into the town area, getting dark no signs. met a guy at the gas station from the snowmobile club. He went to club house, got a Yamaha work sled and guided us into town, Much appreciated. us and 2 other sleds there. woke up in the middle of the night with some sketchy kids doing backwards doughnuts in the parking lot with a front wheel drive shit box of sorts. That year (2010) north shore area was deep snow, south shore trails very thin but passable. it was a trip of 2 extremes. good time.

bessette's custom dual track sled at the riotel, this sled had a write up in SNOWTECH magazine. trail 5 at those 2 cabins somewhere, look out back in 2010

isle vert trail back in 2010, always a fun start from RDL on 2006 polaris fusion 600's, same thing, ran them hard to the bar, sold it at 10000 miles, no problems.

Just did my 7 day, you print it out right after you pay. Print at least 2 copies, keep one in a ziplock on you so you can quickly show when needed.

Nice report, thanks for the photos. Good to see the area is open with good snow coverage. Those are some good routes you ran. We are heading up to RDL on the 3rd., can t wait.

Great report, thanks again. its very nice to have real time snow conditions. especially this year as new york is mostly green grass.
