Andyman Posted December 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2014 Yes, I have heard the penalty for parking in the wrong place has severe repercussions!! Biggest guy has the right of way! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pipeman Posted December 5, 2014 Report Share Posted December 5, 2014 We pulled into Clova the day after (if memory serves me right) the train hit the sled and the guy who drives the groomer for Dominic house was burning to the ground. Very sad as there is no fire department or anything it just burned to the ground, best part was he was at Tamarac with us instead of the school house Dominic owns...............Rough week in that little town !

Pipemaster Posted December 13, 2014 Report Share Posted December 13, 2014 (edited) So what's the deal with Tamarac this year, are they open ?? Edited December 13, 2014 by Pipemaster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andyman Posted December 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2014 My understanding is Dominic owns the town! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MFARJM Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 We are planning to do a tour and part of it is to ride from Sennatiere to Clova the end of January. Is there any good news about gas and lodging? Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viper2 Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 First gas going east after Senneterre is Balbuzard can also stay there then gas at Clova and lodging at the schoolhouse, don't know about the Tamarac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJSkidoo Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 Or you will have to go to Parent. South of Parent is a nice place called Le Fer al Cheval which I believe is open this winter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

600IQHO Posted January 28, 2015 Report Share Posted January 28, 2015 Stopped in at the Tamarack Monday morning to see if Carol and Al were around. Truck was not there and the snow was not recently plowed from the lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJSkidoo Posted January 28, 2015 Report Share Posted January 28, 2015 who makes them gas cans I just ordered a Powderkeg 700 Combo Pak for my 2011 1200 Renegade with 137 track. Much sleeker setup than LinQ gas caddy and saddlebags/tunnel bag. It's a bit more expensive but I recently heard good things about them.

Pipeman Posted January 28, 2015 Report Share Posted January 28, 2015 So what's the deal with Tamarac this year, are they open ?? Dominic owns the Tamarac now and it is open for rooms only, no food or drink there. I assume he uses it as a spill-over when the school house is full.

markusvt Posted January 28, 2015 Report Share Posted January 28, 2015 I put one on mine, very nice. You need to shim the brackets up 5-8mm. I am curious if Chris is including these in the kit now.

I haven't gotten it yet but he told me to use a quarter to shim the brackets. Very nice man on the phone and offered to take me through install if the directions weren't clear.

Snobeeler Posted January 30, 2015 Report Share Posted January 30, 2015 Has anyone confirmed Balbazard will sell gas to sleds passing thru? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iceman Posted January 30, 2015 Report Share Posted January 30, 2015 Yes Florida Snowman was there last week. I think is 2.50 per litre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snobeeler Posted January 30, 2015 Report Share Posted January 30, 2015 Ok, thanks. I thought he stayed there too. Prolly sell to anyone paying $2.50 L. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snobeeler Posted January 30, 2015 Report Share Posted January 30, 2015 Holy smokes, just looked at Senabi (Senneterre) web site. Looks updated from last time I stayed there. Anybody prefer there or La Bell Villa? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anybody prefer there or La Bell Villa? We are booked at the Senabi next Friday but actually I like both, but Senabi has laundry facilities that will come in handy on our ride.
