He was a great guy and honest . His wife was Rita. He love drag racing his cars too!

Boy seeing those pictures really takes me down memory lane. The Cuillere a Pot was where it all started for me riding in Quebec. Back in the middle 80’s when I lived in southern New York ( been in Ontario since 1991) we use to ride tug hill and old forge. Then I started buying my sleds from a guy named Bob Herman’s in Brewster New York . Great guy . He always rode in Saranac Lake in New York and based out of a place called Charlie’s. We went a few times and it always was good time. Bob in 1985-86 goes to Quebec and comes back from staying at the Cuillere a pot and tells us about this snowmobiling meca . 1987 I go up with a bunch of friends and the Hermans but also probably about another 10 people Bob has told about this place. I’m not sure how many Americans found out about this place through Bob but it was many. We would go many times after. As I sit here and Reminisce about the Pot , Gaeton , the first double wide trails I’d ever been on. The first time I had ever ridden 140 miles in a day and do it pretty comfortably. The rides to the cafeteria and it being the place where I first ever had poutine . The pot where I had my first Cesar and plate of Escargot. Taking my pregnant wife to ride , telling her you will be comfortable it’s not like Tug Hill I swear. I’m sure we all have these kinds of stories where it once started for each of us . It’s sad to see some of the things that once got it us to Quebec, change go out of business or just fade away but I’m thankful for all those places because it gave so many great memories. I

Thanks guys! Happy Birthday to both of you!

Yup . First time ever for me ! Heard a bang , thought a it was a belt but looked up in the air about 20 feet to my left at saw about a 6 in piece of something flying through the air and thought , WTF went to hit the brakes and then it hit me , Track!

You can even have issues in the deep!

Out in Montana at Big Sky skiing but rented some sleds yesterday. Had a blast even though no fresh snow.

Not going to happen my friend . Dr Tam who is in charge of the federal medical stuff says no way! Even if you are a returning snow bird you will have to do the 14 day quarantine even if been vaccinated. She says “ the vaccine might be 90 % effective but she is worried about the other 10 % “ WTF !! I get the whole safety thing and the quarantine thing but if it was left up to her there would be no cross boarder movement or any movement! That’s all fine and dandy if you got a government job and get paid no matter what but the rest of the world has to start making a living after a year of shutdown up here!

Where were these guys 15 years ago when I need them. Helped my daughter and her friend build a snowmaking project for a science project and it was a pain in the can ! This equipment would of made it so much easier lol

Yup I figured you would be the one on that one! Great stop!

No , but here’s a hint. it’s in the Mauricie-Centre du Quebec

Nope but good guess!

Should be easier
