Bought this car when I was 30 years old and just lost my storage building so I’m going to drive it after 38 years…63 corvette… still 100 percent original with 41 thousand miles…300hp…4 speed… I only put 400 miles on it … been waiting for this my whole life

I took a nice 559 mile ride the Friday before last. I actually donned the heated gear for a while. Won't need it today! I rode to the Beauce area of Quebec and visited a friend's daughter, then had lunch with my friend and his wife in Saint-Georges. Then back home to Berwick, Maine. The Relive App shut off before I got back home. Maybe it quits after 12 hours? I saw one Moose between the border and Jackman, Maine. 
Relive Ride Friday The Thirteenth.
Moose in the road.
 

Rain has finally stop… summer sled is out!!

Baie trinité
A tourist accommodation (chalets) and restaurant project is currently under development in Baie-Trinité, Manicouagan.
It includes five rental cottages, scheduled to open this fall.
Karine Davignon, co-owner of Les Portes du Golfe, fell under the spell of Baie-Trinité with her husband during a trip to the Côte-Nord region.
Since acquiring the church in 2022 to transform it into a performance venue, the couple have been multiplying their initiatives in the village.
It's like being in the South, but on the North Shore.
A quote from Karine Davignon, co-owner of Les Portes du Golfe
These passionate collectors of antiques and heritage buildings already own a canteen and a street food truck.
They have recently acquired the restaurant opposite the church and are renovating it.
It is due to open in January.
From bed to plate!
The rental cottage project will ensure the continuity of our project," explains Ms. Davignon.
The company will be able to offer a complete tourism package including accommodation, catering and cultural activities.
Being able to offer a service that's right on the seafront is also a big draw for people.
There are very few places where this is possible," explains Karine Davignon.
She adds that this offer in Baie-Trinité, located between Baie-Comeau and Sept-Îles, will satisfy both worker and tourist demand.There are many challenges involved in launching a tourist, food and cultural activity in a village like Baie-Trinité.
The entrepreneur points to permit applications, which mean additional delays, and the difficulty of finding certain trades in a remote region.
The project, originally scheduled to get underway on June 24, has been delayed by logistical issues related to the delivery of cottages arriving on the ferry. 

New place to stay 5 chalets and restaurant open this winter.

Fun is not cheap

Hopefully it stays that way when we upgrade to v5. I think Invision has fixed most of the bugs in v5, but there my be some minor issues to work through.

Great ride and pics! Thanks for sharing 

Looks like parts of 83 did this winter.....

Nice! 👍

Yep Reggie and Bernard both did. No biggie, truck and trailer were safe and sound.

Very welcome!

Beautiful ride! Glad you went into the canyon.

Awesome! Thanks for sharing

They have found another bridge not conforming to standards. That makes 2 that need replacing or major repairs.
The first bridge with the one lane action was apparently never okayed for use by the MRNF(minister resource natural faune) they have the final say in the park up there not the MTQ, minister transport 
people are still going to pass through this trail for sure it just won’t be maintained and if something happens well then… too bad for you on a closed trail. 
 
 

Has the bridge standard recently been changed?  Seems to be a lot of bridges failed to meet standard right before snow fell.  
This has been a hard winter on Main TQ trails: 5, 83, 93 and likely one or two more I missed.  Between bridges and poor planning with the Forestry sector it has been a challenge to snowmobilers and snowmobile dependant businesses.  Not to mention a late start to snow in some regions.

Yep shame, Peter was awesome. One thing stayed the same though, the price….

Yep, scary stuff blowing through a stop sign. We were in the middle of no where and i was about to cross railroad tracks, I half looked to my left then glanced to my right and a train about 50 yds from me thankfully blared it’s horn, damn near shit my pants.
