Still closed during the week? Looks open, but checking to make sure.

Snow Miser, the run from Faillon to Motel du Lac is a pretty fast run. Once you get north of Senneterre it is arrow straight. You will be at your destination easily in the early afternoon. You could make the run to Marina Chibougamau from Faillon and be there around dark. The run down to Roberval will be a nice day. Bring gas as Snowmaster already stated. From the gas stop,in Chibougamau to the station in LaDore is 150 miles. Nice place to stay in Roberval is Chateau Roberval. Since you now picked up a day, from Roberval you can stay at one of the unique locations on TQ 83. A short 125ish miles to Pourvoirie Windigo, or about 230 miles to Barrage Gouin. Nice run the next day to Fer a Cheval. Just some food for thought. Enjoy your ride.

Anxious to hear the diagnosis as well. As already stated, the 1200 is a bulletproof motor.

Have a great ride George!

Back in the day, I would get most of my information for lodging from the advertisers on the maps and in the magazines. Started in Canada back in 1995 when we were cancelled out of a saddlebag trip around the Michigan UP due to weather. In one of the magazines, SnoGoer I think, Alain from Hotel Motel Saint Agathe use to do a write up about Quebec. My riding buddy and I had the time off, so we booked with Alain and have been hooked on Quebec ever since.

I have to agree that it is probably a moot point. For those of us going to Canada from the US, we would need to be fully vaccinated with qualified COVID test results. It looks then like the only way you would need a quarantine plan is by having a random test come up positive. In that case, you’re probably heading back home.

Looking for fellow Quebec Rider thoughts on their quarantine plans that have to be submitted when you enter Canada. Is it good enough to say that you will be here on this night, and here on the next night all the way through your entire trip? I thought this may be a helpful topic as there are probably just more than me that are wondering the same.

According to the App, 149 miles.

That was most likely our group. Would have been the first week in February. We tried for awhile to connect a small portable generator to the gas pumps that the generator repairman had brought with him. The wiring to the pumps was a soup sandwich without having a schematic diagram.

Back in 2019 we pulled into La Cache for gas. Generator down and d they were waiting for the repairman to arrive. There was another group of riders there along with the seven of us. The repairman arrived and wasn’t having any luck getting the primary or backup generator running. The backup generator would run for a minute or so and shutdown due to no oil pressure. We had the repairman start it for us again and saw the analog gauge on the generator control panel showed good oil pressure so we had him bypass the oil pressure sensor. Generator back on line. When we got there there were about 15 sleds needing gas. This is what it looked like by the time the generator was back online.

I live close to the border so we see quite a bit of news about the border. What Scorpionbowl wrote is correct, just Canadian citizens returning to Canada after a short visit. The Canadian government is concerned about the US increasing COVID cases, so no change for US citizens going to Canada at this time. I am hoping that before the riding season sets in that the PCR testing requirements are dropped.

My mistake. It was the winter of 2019/2020. So easy to forget the first two months of 2020 these days.
Required Covid Test

Not quite correct. You will no longer have to take a PCR or NAT or NAAT test. You will have to take the antigen test. It will need to be administered by a medical professional so you can get the official results. The home test, which is the same antigen test, is not valid. Hopeful that testing will all go away soon.
