Justsick Posted December 24, 2013 Report Share Posted December 24, 2013 Me and my wife are thinking of riding in the area for approx. 5 days We're looking for the following - hotel for probably 5 nights, around $ 100.00 a night ? - something with a nice restaurant or close to one -something close to or on the trail -would like to spend the day riding and enjoying the scenery, maybe an overnight trip ? -New Years party ? We are planning on leaving Mississauga on Saturday morning, RDL seems to far anymore. The conditions look fairly good already in this area . Is there a site to check trail conditions? Thanks in advance Will, and Merry Christmas everyone !!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowdogs Posted December 24, 2013 Report Share Posted December 24, 2013 (edited) Justsick, look at the post just prior to yours for a recent report. As for conditions, go to the fcmq web site and click on trail conditions on the left, it will re-direct you. I am partial to La Glaciere for a motel (I am friends with the owner) nothing fancy but clean, on the trail, gas on site, English speaking owner (Lionel) on site restaurant overseen by his wife who is a chef. Located in St. Zenon. There are also several other options in the area. Oh, welcome to Quebec Rider, you will not find a better place or better people to help you out with information on riding in wonderful Quebec.

snowdogs Posted December 24, 2013 Report Share Posted December 24, 2013 laglaciere.com is the web site. Phone # 450 884 0250, if you do not speak francais, ask for Lionel, he is the owner, they might have someone else there that speaks english but I am not sure. Tell Lionel that his friend Mark from New York suggested you call Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

towing Posted January 2, 2014 Report Share Posted January 2, 2014 Oh you will have great trail condition for sure, but temperatures for the real one... It's the best time to venture on more twisty wood trails to get the best of it... Enjoy, ride safely and keep the pics coming!!!
