Fuse6 Posted February 9, 2022 Report Share Posted February 9, 2022 Hi Jean-Guy, We past through your neighborhood today. Stopped at the clubhouse planning on having lunch but it was closed. I checked the website this morning said it was open. Luckily we were able to eat lunch at the gas station. Beautiful run down the 587S to PLC. Saw a lot of moose tracks but no actual moose. Later afternoon and there was not any sled tracks on the southern portion of the 587. We had a great 3 day ride in the Gaspe. Crossing back into NB tomorrow morning for a couple days riding before heading home. PLAYHARD and MrGutz 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
