He gives us Dave’s number to call him direct. He is available. Dave is the man.
Class 1 truck driver lots of experience no worries with pickup and trailer. He says no problem, Alain explains where truck is parked and how to get in it. He says it’s under control. He will be on the road to us at 6:15am. Perfect.
He arrives at 8:10am in Matane. Load sleds pack gear. We are off like a prom dress for RDL. Awesome nice guy and used to groom for club in RDL. Snowmobiler and I explained Quebecrider to him and he texted me a screen shot of him signing up this afternoon. Great asset found in RDL. Certified rescue driver when needed. Best $200 ever spent. We tipped him too. But hey taxi was $330 from Matane or from RDL same price cause you pay coming and going.
His number is saved in my phone and look forward to seeing my new friend anytime I get to RDL.
Great conversation about trucking and all kinds of stuff 2 hours passed quickly. Into RDL and it is bare near hotel. Mud.and grass. We say our goodbyes for now. And westbound 20 to Quebec City lunch at St Hubert and back in Trois Riveres at 2:40pm.
Certainly not how I hoped my season would end, my rides with the wife this year were the highlight, watching her mature as a rider is awesome.
My sled is off to the doctor on Monday just in case things turn around for a last hurrah.
This season was a tough one but no need to tell you all who could not even get here.
Next year we will make up for it. Big Time.
