RoadRunner Posted December 1, 2015 Report Share Posted December 1, 2015 (edited) RR, Would I be guessing right if I said you were on an Expedition Extreme 800??? Always enjoy your early jaunts. mike Mike, unfortunately, I could not make the turkey day run, but they are both 800 extremes and as you can see a free ride, one of the extremes is Robs, I have stuck with the 1200 expedition but it is not in yet, ☹️ugh! , I will be taking a 900 renegade on this trip.

Pipeman Posted December 1, 2015 Report Share Posted December 1, 2015 That's awesome, looks like around 1.5 feet or how much was there? How far were you able to go in " rideable " snow ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoadRunner Posted December 1, 2015 Report Share Posted December 1, 2015 Pipeman, as the snow map reveals, the snow extends for hundreds of miles from 100 miles north of Baie Comeau up to and beyond Sept Isle and beyond into Labrador. The big issue is the rivers and large lakes are not safe yet so you get more limited, and there is no trail network so you do have to do your own navigating. Still fun to get out and get that first ride in. RR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markusvt Posted December 2, 2015 Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 Mapquest for me to Labrador City says 21 hours and 21 minutes, 831 miles. I think I'll wait a little longer. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

actionjack Posted December 2, 2015 Report Share Posted December 2, 2015 So nice to see snow. I was wondering how far Early Rider had to go this year. I can hardly get enough guys to make a 12 hour drive. It'd be over 20 for me to get there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes Action Jack, Understand the challenge with those long 12 hour-hauls, Hope we don't have to do this all winter ,lol, Early Rider really likes to get out on that first snow, here's a great pic of Earlys new 800 extreme. Gorgeous views up in that area Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoadRunner Posted December 5, 2015 Report Share Posted December 5, 2015 Mark, we are on the manicougan reservoir. At Relais Gabriel. Had some issues today with all 3 of the 800 extremes. The driven clutch on all 3 are not shifting back properly at times. The boys will do some clutch work to see if they can straightened out. Heading towards Port Cartier today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markusvt Posted December 5, 2015 Report Share Posted December 5, 2015 (edited) You boys have fun! If we don't have closer options soon I know the way........., (only 13 hours for me). It there any kind of trail system there, or logging road type riding? http://www.tlhwy.com/central/hwy389guide.html The gas-a-boggon looks like a fun ride, you take turns piloting that one?

RoadRunner Posted December 6, 2015 Report Share Posted December 6, 2015 Markusvt, no trail system but lots of logging roads, and you do want to have fuel. And do some homework on the,area before you head out. Think snow! RR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoadRunner Posted December 6, 2015 Report Share Posted December 6, 2015 We had a very good ride yesterday down the old Port Carter to Fermont FCMQ trail, it was a little over 300 miles. The last 3 miles in was very dry to get fuel and lunch at Tim Hortons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
