    Yep.  We use nothing but cordless on our commercial construction sites.  Battery technology needs to improve again for transportation to be feasable.  So does the charging network.  That will be the biggest hurdle in remote areas.

    So my 2015 with 30,000 kms that i paid $8000 for 5 years ago isn't still worth $12,000 to sell today?  Guess I should pull my ad down.  Lol.
    Considering the economy, the end of Covid and the weather, I'd say BRP has nothing to spitt at with those numbers.  Still pretty respectful and better than pre-covid.

    Interesting development.  Running a 650km loop north of Lab city, coming back to lab city due to no snow on the south coast.  Then heading for Goose Bay and the north coast.  If you haven't download the yellowbrick road app.  Will be interesting to watch.  Race starts tomorrow morning.  10 am local time in Lab City I believe.

    Several teams scratched today.  Team Maine was leading (they are past winners).  Looks like they had a wreck and pulled one sled in on a rope for a significant distance (if they pulled from where the app shows them slowing down its gotta be well over 100 km they had the sled on a tow rope).  Pretty neat to watch.  Gonna have to make the trip one of these years.  Would be neat to see them get a real big dump of snow mid race.  If that doesn't occur it looks like the race will go fast.  They ran over 600 kms in something like 10 hrs today.  That's not trail riding either.  These guys are a touch nuts running this at the speed they do.

    Hope they're carrying a firearm.  Heading up into polar bear country.  Bears are probably still out on the sea ice, but I wouldn't be taking any chances.

    In no way saying they're a smart bunch in that car.  But could just be the reflection from the groomers headlights.

    Facebook says they want to preserve the base through the warm spell.  Will re-open if it snows.

    You should head for Kirkland Lake and run the Northern Corridor.  They got 6" - 12" of snow in this last storm.

    Great report Alain.  We rode a loop around Saint Donat last Wednesday and then a loop from Saint Come up to Pouvoire Coin Lavigne and back on Thursday.  The odd tough stretch, but overall, I'd call 95% of the riding mid-season conditions.  Maybe not as much base as the area is used to, but very good riding still.  Here's hoping the weatherman isn't correct.

    I got a reply back that 90% of the white trail is still closed.  So on to plan B I guess.
