markusvt Posted January 13, 2016 Report Share Posted January 13, 2016 Relay 22 on the main road, (if you can call it that), gas no issue. Repos in the bush, they do get gas delivered in the winter by truck as the road is plowed and dumped into their 10K tank above ground. You will pay more and be happy.

Repos has fuel and Kanawata to the north of Repos has fuel as well. Relay 22 on the main road, (if you can call it that), gas no issue. Repos in the bush, they do get gas delivered in the winter by truck as the road is plowed and dumped into their 10K tank above ground. You will pay more and be happy. That is true you will pay more, but as my dad taught me many years ago, these machines don't push easily if you run out. Good advice from wise man.

dooright Posted January 14, 2016 Report Share Posted January 14, 2016 (edited) Wasn't relais 22 for sale?I've been riding in Quebec since 2002 , seems relais 22 has been for sale every season . Edited January 14, 2016 by dooright Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trailblazer Posted January 14, 2016 Report Share Posted January 14, 2016 Last season whenI talked with the owner, it was still for sale. His son is studying finance in Montreal and told me he will also be managing dads retirement. Guess he's waiting for his price and his son to finish school.

SRSchang Posted January 14, 2016 Report Share Posted January 14, 2016 Spent four hours at Repos year before last waiting for the fuel truck to arrive. In hindsight, I'm glad I got there early, as I don't know if there would be enough fuel for those at the end of the line. Tons of sleds waiting to fuel up. It wasn't a big truck. I suppose they would have to wait until another truck showed up. Sometimes you just don't have any other choice. Lunch was good and it was warm inside. Just got to Kanawata a little later than we had planned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greasemonkey Posted January 14, 2016 Report Share Posted January 14, 2016 One warning that I'm sure most of us know, gotta be careful when fueling up right after the fuel truck fills the tank. There is a lot of sediment, rust and possibly water that gets stirred around from the bottom of the storage tanks while the fuel truck is unloading. Granted, when your empty and a big line has formed behind you, you gotta do what you have to do. But, when ever possible, we usually try to avoid that situation.
