mikerider Posted January 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 Everything in Rimouski & Riviera Du Loup area just turned up red (closed) on the FCMQ trail report site. Driving west from RDL first 40 miles mostly bare ground. Also streams have water on top of ice. Just stopped in Montgamy, looks fair. mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikerider Posted January 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 Snopro, I landed in Jonquiere at the Delta. Not riding tonight, but looks like the crew left for a ride. It does look promising, and getting cold. Saw sleds riding while driving thru the park on the way up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowpromod Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 Thanks - I will let them know, I will look forward to your posts or feel free to PM me some conditions updates. . . . they might look to move this afternoon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowpro, I think it is better to let them go leaderless this trip and take no ownership, you will get appreciated more next time lol RR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowpromod Posted January 15, 2013 Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 Well they pressed on yesterday - Lac Etchemin to Cabano . . . . they are heading towards Amqui today, here is the report and pics I got! "Conditions are fair considering, we rode in 45 degree weather." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikerider Posted January 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 Looks like they are pressing onward, I can tell quite a difference in conditions from just a few days ago. mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spectre Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 Mike, Planning on coming up to Hotel Universal on Sunday Jan. 20th to ride for a week. Any info you could provide on the latest trail conditions would be appreciated. I see today that they changed the trail report for Bas St Laurent from green/good to yellow/limited. You probably don't remember me but we rode together a few years ago with Saguenay Bill out of Jonquiere.Thanks John Wood Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spectre Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Good Morning, I'm planning a trip to RDL to ride day loops out of Hotel Universal for a week. I was hoping someone could give me an accurate trail conditions report....Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lindasledgirl Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Hi Spectre I could be wrong...there are members that will know better than me, but I think that area is nearly closed since the rain. If this snow storm comes this weekend maybe not....but today I am pretty sure you should pick a different location, or wait a week. Just looking for where I read it, but even the trail report doesn't look good. http://www.motoneiges.ca/actions/showClubConditions?lg=fr&page=sen&cid=34 linda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lindasledgirl Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Thanks much Linda. I was starting to come to that conclusion. Ian from Monster Performance is looking for a riding partner, you are both in New York, get your butts in a truck and get up to Quebec!!

snowpromod Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Well the report from yesterday - they are done, trails are terrible and they are getting a ride back to the truck from St Pascal (2.5 hours) from the groomer driver at the Relais! They ran into a lot of dirt - trails are very thin at best! Lots of overheating, 3 skis have holes worn all the way through and it sounds like everyone needs hyfax.

mikerider Posted January 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 As of right now I would say find a different area. They need snow first several miles around hotel, and at least several inches of snow elsewhere to mix in with the current cement that is on the ground. Very possible also that signs stuck in the snow have toppled over. mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spectre Posted January 19, 2013 Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 Thanks Mike, We're headed up to St. Zenon tomorrow. Will be trying RDL again at the end of Feb.............John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
