I didn't realize Timbo.  My pleasure meeting you.

Richie and I had ridden up on our Harleys.  We did not want to miss such a milestone occasion.

It was a great time. 900 miles each way, lol!!!!

That summer gathering at Andy's in Moncton was great.  First time after quite a few winters meandering thru La Belle Province that I had the occasion to meet You, Bill.  An additional pleasure??  was my first opportunity to meet our friend Mr. McLellan.

Is that a Montana I see on your bars?

[Rogers Cabin]

A real loss.  Was a great spot to re-charge.

Have stayed @ Motel du Lac on 3 or 4 occasions. (Matter of fact, Pud and I are booked in there on Feb 23rd on our Chibou loop).    It's fine and easy to get into the village.  They are snowmo friendly.  Gas and food are close by.

Now that's one nasty looking saw!!!  I can see why you don't need the "chainer" anymore.

Jumbo good news!!

There is a little too much snow on the "lady of the day" for me to see her well.  Kindly brush her off before you engage a photographer next time.  lol

So Ray are you in this picture? LOL

The guy "fondling the belly" looks like a Cessna Pilot to me.

Hmm. That is doable on a tank with the 1200 but you can not break any trail or run hard. Guess I should make sure I do that leg with Andyman, he always has extra. The Blue Squadron would use their extra gas before passing the sawmill!!! LOL

That is just mean-spirited, Steven.

 

The dim-witted seem to find humour in such tasteless commentary...............

My gut says be prepared to ride from La Dore to Chibougamau with no fuel stop other than what you are carrying! If there isn't something in place by now it isn't going to happen. Just my 2 cents worth.

 

Andy

I fear you are right, Amigo.

This other snowmobiler needed some cash but when he used the ATM, it confiscated his card!!! But he was in great company his "buddy" "loaned" him some cash that's when a Mainer found out what's it like to owe someone from Jersey who's name ends in a vowel...lol

This bank is along a converted rail line in the Mt. Laurier area

Along the linear parc near lac carre?

[Where am I? 2016 fall edition.]

Bingo!

See you and Bill tomorrow evening!

[Happy Birthday 182Ray]

Greetings 152 Ray,

I trust your birthday was enjoyable and rewarding. Hope to encounter you on the trail this winter ?

All the best. I am saving a special bottle of vin rouge for our first encounter.

[Duramax Motor - Block Heater - Type of extension cord?]

A mighty fine looking truck!

I've been driving diesel trucks to Quebec for many years. The advice you received above is sound. One comment I would make is "get as close to your power source as you can" ; the shorter the cord the better. I have 25', 50' and 100' drag cords, rated at 15A, 800w, or better. I try to get as close as possible to the outlet and use the shortest cord that will work.

[Happy Birthday Mr Gutz]

Don, I trust you will enjoy a joyeux anniversaire of your birthdate!

[New Longest Cross Country Canadian Trail]

Fantastic Concept! But, fer sure there will be (for us snowmobilers) jumbo "gaps" caused either by the aforementioned metro areas, as well as "restricted areas" like Provincial Parks, linear parks like Petite Train du Nord in situations from Lac Carre to Tremblant, various restrictions on Crown Lands further west, etc, etc.

Hope it turns out well. A few years ago, Andyman, Pud and I rode to lake Superior. I'd surely like to continue on West!!
