  1. That is a young man, woman sport.
  2. It seems that people can say I want to make things better but really they may be just want to have power and get to show it.
  3. Does this generator also power the buildings? Been there a few times and never noticed any power lines.
  4. Not all trails are old railbeds. This is good in that we are getting to see the work it takes to have the great trails we get to ride on.
  5. Why do I not believe that there isn't this insurance issue involved with the clubs. I'm sure over the summer there was several meeting by club personnel on just how to protect the club and possibly the officers of the club. There has been a presedent set by a judge that is going to effect all clubs from now on. Maybe the clubs new rules if any are just taking longer to set up than expected. I think this is putting club officials in a very difficult place. I believe they are all just trying to get everything done properly. These are just my thoughts. If you can get millions for driving off a trail just think what you could get for hitting a big snow bank in the middle of a snow storm.
  6. In Clayton near Watertown it has been raining for 4 or 5 days not hard but steady. My thoughts coming home Today was if we had the same temperature as last year we would have 2 feet of white stuff. Just thinking what a difference a year makes. But next week is going to be different.
  7. I'm thinking a two up seat and a bottle of wine for the nerves and hang on. Lol. I'm sure Sandi will take care of you.
  8. It's going to happen because he told me so,
  9. You should go for the ride on 5 around the north shore. Always amazing to look out on the St. Lawrence River and see 600 foot plus ships that are out so far they look like toy boats. One year there was so much ice all the ships had ice breakers leading the way. Also staying at a hotel near the water and see nothing but ice when you go to bed and wake up to blue water. Whatever you decide have a good time and be safe.
  10. Just wondering how many dealers will use this for a excuse for your sled not in. Sorry they told me your sled was on a tractor trailer and it was stolen. Lol
  11. GPS on the truck hopefully.
  12. I would like to have the reason for a possible closure or a closure be let known in detail . Maybe us riders are doing something and not knowing it. As in if one rider cuts a corner that they shouldn't it's a fact others will follow and now there's a problem. Land owners don't just say no more passage, I would think they would complain to someone. With the internet it seems that it wouldn't be that hard to notify the Quebec Riders that there's problem brewing. Really a small group but we all know people that ride in Quebec and who don't read this site. I think we, as in Quebec Riders, atleast should offer some ideas to help fixing this problem. These are mine and only my thoughts about this problem. Be safe all.
  13. That's a beautiful sled but is that a John Deere model 40 with a 2 cylinder engine
  14. Mike I think it will be a great time seeing how you ride out of the same location everyday. I think you are going to be nimble. Lol. Oh yea stay on the trail.
  15. I understand the airstrip at Casey but on the map it looks like two locations for Katawata. Did they expand to another outpost away from the lake. Little confused. Lol
  16. Its amazing how much money is spent on the trail system in Quebec to me. But my concern is the trails that are being or talking about being closed due to riders misuse of land owners property. I believe the riders doing this are the younger generation who think the trail system will always be there. Just look at this year. A section of 10 miles can cut off getting to the rest of your trip. I do believe that a lot aren't aware of the possibility of more trails will be closed and they may be the cause. It just happened that last night I purchased our trail permits and I think seeing how easy it is to purchase the permit that why couldn't a addendum be added to the invoice of the purchase a letter letting people know of their misuse of trails and disrespect to landowners they may be the cause of closures of trails. I think the letter should be blunt and be strong enough that people will think before they destroy the trails and disrespect the land owners. These our my thoughts and feel something must be done.
  17. This a great feature to put on the trail map. I really hadn't noticed it before. I live on a island in the St. Lawrence River and a few year ago I received a call from a state trooper who I have known since he was a young boy playing hockey. Anyway he ask if I knew of a place that a medical rescue helicopter could land for rescue purpose. I happen to have a small field that is also close to the public dock that we discussed looking at. So I went out and stood in the field and a few minutes later this NEW YORK STATE helicopter came and landed then took off . I spoke to him later and they took the GPS numbers and that area is set for other organizations to find for other emergencies. I think this could work on the trail system in Quebec. By the way my property has not been used but I am contacted every year for permission to be used.
  18. The barbarians are bullies of the religion and the good people of the religion fear them. The problem I see is there are bullies in our country of this religion and they will start the same here. Lucky for some of us is these people are in large communities where they can hide their true feelings. Sooner or later they will show them selfs because they will have the money from the true terrorist in the Middle East to supply their needs. With our new laws of letting the bad people go I think we are in trouble. Only my opinion.
  19. Now that's a bold statement that alot will agree with.
  20. This is awful thing to speak about but what are the odds of our government, as in United States, deciding that's covid is back. Right after I buy our trail passes.
  21. Oh what if it had snow in those clouds
  22. Yes it's time to plan. We are starting on the west side and going north on 95 then south to La Dore and then west to Mont Laurie and find away back to the truck. Sounds easy. Lol.
  23. Problem is this does set a president. Going to be clubs fault if someone tips over.
  24. And that electric powered groomer is on the way
  25. Just had a conversation with my kid about getting prepared for something happening to us like this. For years we have talked about communicators and always it never seemed that important. Buy like he just said if this did happen to us at least he would be screaming and maybe it would be a warning for me. Because there is the two of us I don't know what my reaction would be. Anyway glad you guys are going home and wish all of you the best. Like everyone here believes, bad timing and wrong place. I also want to say to groomer operator he was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. No one at fault. All you guys keep us updated and get healed up for next year. Be safe all.
