Padragon800 Posted February 22, 2018 Report Share Posted February 22, 2018 Hello all had plans to ride next week with my father for our annual trip to Maine but Mother Nature sadly won’t allow that to happen. So this brings me to my help needed want to head to gaspè since they look to have some good snows and conditions still. Have never been there and have no idea about what areas are best and what lodging is best. So what areas are best to ride out of will not be doing saddlebagging just daily rides of 150-200 miles I’m willing to go anywhere in gaspe just want the best/ senic areas. Also in that area what is the best place to stay and ride out of a nice place would be good. Any help is greatly appreciated thank you.

P Hardy Posted February 22, 2018 Report Share Posted February 22, 2018 To see the Gaspe, it is pretty hard to not saddlebag it. But, if you want to do day rides in the Gaspe, one option would be to stay in Amqui and ride out of there. Nice area with a good mix of riding, very nice scenery, really good snow cover this year and a place where you are never really far from anywhere. Ride Options: South West - Amqui to Moose Valley, NB and back - approx 180 miles South loop - Amqui, 587S, Matapedia, Campbellton, La'Alverne, Amqui - Approx 180 miles, East - Amqui, Matane via 5, to the St Paulin Relais and back to Amqui via local trails from Matane - approx 170 miles West - Amqui, to Rimouski loop - lots of local trails and zig zagging, could be anywhere from 100-200miles - La Redemption snow mummies on this route. Hotels: Select Hotel Hotel Ambassadeur Just some options, maybe some others will chime in. nyskidooerinnewhampshire, PLAYHARD and vt_bluyamaha54 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smclelan Posted February 23, 2018 Report Share Posted February 23, 2018 Amqui is really the only central spot to ride out of daily. P Hardy hit it right on, also dont forget the orange trails in that area too. PLAYHARD 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frankblume Posted February 23, 2018 Report Share Posted February 23, 2018 I just made a call to Caribou and am told the trails are in very good shape with more snow expected in the next few days. I am planning on going there next week. I will make a few more calls to confirm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
