Clayton is such a nice little town. Perfect for the poker run with the docks and hotel right there. I love doing that run.  We will have to be in touch that weekend.  Meet you at the docks. 

In your second video you just went by our cottage.  That’s pretty much our view.

We are definitely going to need a video, that includes sound in order to fully comprehend the notes and melodies that come out the tail pipes on those twin screws.  All kinds of extra plumbing in that compartment 

I plan on spending quite a bit of time in Canada this summer but in Ontario on the St. Lawrence. Hopefully the weather is better this summer than last. 

Jeff,  season is done unless you want to drive the truck to one of 3 locations.

How did the Kashima coated shocks work on the front of your enduro this year?  Looked like a pretty sweet set up

Definitely enjoyed following along, jealous is an understatement.  Nice rip.  West is best

14 hrs one way…that’s no joke.
I am sure you will be rewarded accordingly by the groomers and trail conditions  in that neck of the woods.  Post some pics of the run to Matagami.  It’s been too long since I laid eyes on that west side of 396.  Pretty sweet through there as I recall  
 

Day 4 , went out of Forestville,  east on Tq3 about a mile then all local orange trails . Definitely keeping sleds cool was a challenge after it being 50° ish yesterday and below freezing today  .  Awesome day on the trails for sure  👌! 
Forecast for the weekend looks promising,  6+ inches hopefully..  but we're outta here for now on the way back to Vermont  . Cheers 
 
 
 

Today had a little of a delay start leaving Km31 ,  had a stud vs aluminum heat exchanger issue with one of the team members    .. all good with some fancy epoxy goop . 
Did a few work-arounds to skip the 93 on the way to the Escoumins club house,  we popped out by  De l'Or-Piste on the Pelchat trail . Smooth sailing all the way . Conditions from mashed potatoes to skating rink .
Ran some local trails and 330/ TQ3  into Forestville for the night.  
Coverage starting to  disappear here n there... but 3 days near 50°f will do that    

George, I really like my KYB Pro 46 shocks. After 1450 miles so far, I found the best setting was all 3 clickers set to max soft. When I find dual rate springs, I think that will take even the little chop out. Accelerated Technologies is working on a set for me.

Found some big changes at pourvoirie Pipmuacan .. all new huge building replacing the old . 
Top picture of what was there last year and under today  .
 
Didn't see any signs of if/when it'll be reopened  ? 

Day 2 .. Ran northwest of the Pipmuacan today on mostly local trails n such  . Really warm this morning (50°f) swapping to some snow this evening back here at Km31 .  220 miles for today  
 

No , not open the past few winters 
But Benoit has cameras working there ... he has a snapshot of us dumping fuel and posted on there fb ! 
 

Drove up from Vt to Forestville Sunday and met up with Roadrunner our friends from Maine .
Left this morning on rock hard  local trails towards Chenail du Nord  After a quick stop we're off to the Pipmuacan Reservoir. Dropped on down to pourvoirie Itouk to say hi to Luc    the place was rocking on a sunny Monday afternoon  !  Next stop La Chapelle then off to Km31 for the night  . 215 miles for the day 
Was awesome this morning to see and chat with Trailblazer in Forestville and meeting Linda sled girl here at the 31 ! 
Tomorrow,  we'll see .
