MrGutz Posted January 10, 2012 Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 Hey We are all booked to go. Things look good if the Mach stays together. We have never been to the Gaspe and/or RDL, so is it hard to get from the Universal to the Trails? And does anyone know if RDL has enough snow? Thanks GutZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whaler Posted January 10, 2012 Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 You won't have any issues. RDL is a great place to leave from and is also very popular. Conditionas of Saturday night were super! Just watch the weather and you should be good to go! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikerider Posted January 10, 2012 Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 I just arrived at the Universal in RDL this afternoon. Hotel is right by exit 503 from Hwy 20. Nice Hotel. Ask for the sled special, $79. I rode down the RR bed, trl 85 for 40 miles south before turning around, plenty of snow, trails were a ten, then I met the groomer and they were an eleven. Just the first few miles from the hotel are thin but they are fine. May stay thru the weekend. mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coldsmoke1 Posted January 10, 2012 Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 mike after u get on the trail from the motel u will crest a hill there is a local trail that gos straght some very nice rides thay way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikerider Posted January 10, 2012 Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 Thanks Coldsmoke, I may be here for several days so I hope to try em all. I used to sled through this area often years ago and stay overnight here passing through. Nice area with lots of trails. Driving today from Montmagny, snow was very thin almost until I got to RDL. By car, I would say a good hour and a half drive from just below QC, maybe two hours. mike And it looked like the SkiDoo dealer next door to the hotel is out of business. I`ll look closer tomorrow, or maybe they moved. mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trailblazer Posted January 11, 2012 Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 Thanks How long/far past Quebec City Exit is it? Gutz You can't miss that exit, the highway splits at RDL, 2 lane highway splits into 4 lanes, 2 to the left goes to RDL, 2 to the right goes to New Brunswick. Nice St.Hubert restaurant at the bottom of the hill. I'll be there on thursday sometime. JG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks GutZ Gutz are you kidding, never been to the Gaspe? Wow are you in for a treat, some of the best riding and scenery in all of Quebec and the food is superb as well. You will not be disappointed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikerider Posted January 11, 2012 Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 Thanks hope I don't need parts next time through! Andy Yea, SkiDoo shop looks empty. Did 160 miles today. Pretty much everything a perfect 10. Went down around Pohenemook and almost into Cabanno. Does not look like they have groomed Trail 5 going west this year. mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
