Pipeman Posted February 1 Author Report Share Posted February 1 (edited) Today 1/31 Matagami to Val-d’or Forestel. To warm 34f. Trails around Amos are hanging on by a thread in places much better towards Valdor but anything near town sucks. http://quebecrider.com/forums/uploads/monthly_2024_02/IMG_1548.thumb.jpeg.fbe0cea664667e1d104cd08b456727bf.jpeg http://quebecrider.com/forums/uploads/monthly_2024_02/IMG_1554.thumb.jpeg.3ddea5e9a0fbfb02522ab33e16e0d2da.jpeg http://quebecrider.com/forums/uploads/monthly_2024_02/IMG_1549.thumb.jpeg.315d0bf578dc14c6358233080a2ba523.jpeg Edited February 1 by Pipeman NSHM, Je me souviens, PLAYHARD and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pipeman Posted February 3 Author Report Share Posted February 3 2/1 we left Forestel headed to Clova. The 83 all the way to Clova was mint!! There is one section past the warming hut outside Senneterre that is a mess due to the fires , logging. About 10 km of shit but not a biggie.

Pipeman Posted February 3 Author Report Share Posted February 3 (edited) Today we left Clova heading to Relais 22, good for about 15 miles then pretty much a shit show until 15 miles past Wemotaci. The bridge is finished past Parent. No grooming until the Gouin trail meets the 83 and even that was just ok. There was talk that the groomers from the east and west groomed up to the bridge that is NOT the case. Single wide and lots of stubble for about 30 miles after the bridge. http://quebecrider.com/forums/uploads/monthly_2024_02/IMG_1575.thumb.jpeg.64a8618573d7f9530fd344798946e9bb.jpeg http://quebecrider.com/forums/uploads/monthly_2024_02/IMG_1577.thumb.jpeg.62feec47a4485bd62427dbe00bc81ed7.jpeg Edited February 3 by Pipeman Je me souviens, dooright, MrGutz and 2 others 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pipeman Posted February 3 Author Report Share Posted February 3 Today 2/3 final day. We left Relais 22 this morning and arrived back in Shawinigan safe and sound after 8 days and zero issues thankfully. 73 south was good , 355 sucked ,351 so so and a police check with radar near Shawinigan. Overall some great trails some not so much but still a great time with a great riding partner! Hopefully more snow and cold in the forecast.
