doo4adoo Posted September 12, 2011 Report Share Posted September 12, 2011 Is any one interested in heading up a few days earlier to do the loop? I would like to come and put some faces to the names that i keep reading about but would like to do some of the great trails in the area as it is a bit of a haul just for the weekend. Let me know if there is any interest as i would be on my own. Wife not intested and buddy unreliable. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doo4adoo Posted September 13, 2011 Report Share Posted September 13, 2011 Hi doo4adoo Looks like I mite be on my own too wife doesn't like the Cold and my buddy isn't reliable either would be nice to ride with Somebody I was thinking the same as coldsmoke 1 leaving from jackman Maine somewhere the trucks are safe. Do you have a plan yet? I don't have a plan yet. Was waiting to see what opportunities may arise. I would have to look at the map to see where your trails will take you and possible meet up with you on the trail. In the perfect world i was thinking of starting the wednesday out of RDL and going downn the coast and cutting through to Murdockville and then up the center and into groomers area. Never been down the middle yet and that would allow good ttime to arrive for saturday and then depart back on the sunday to trucks. Let me know. Bill thanks for the offer. I know it would be a fun run down from the Sagenay and crossing over to the Gaspe but i do that area later in the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
