mcstar Posted February 21, 2019 Report Share Posted February 21, 2019 Anyone been in this area lately and has anyone one started a saddlebag trip from here? I want to try something different , tired of doing the same areas over and over, last time i was in this area was over 20 years ago! Any other suggestions on starting points not far off Autoroute 20?

Jackstraw Posted February 22, 2019 Report Share Posted February 22, 2019 My concern would be a secure spot to leave the truck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenP Posted February 22, 2019 Report Share Posted February 22, 2019 Recommend launching out of Blanchet Motel. Connecting Trail to TQ45 at rear of their parking lot. I have done this multiple times without problem. Ken P vt_bluyamaha54 and dooright 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve stayed in places south and east of there. We usually just pic a place on the maps if we don’t know any better. I can’t think of a bad place that advertises on a map, but there are certainly gems that don’t advertise. Also note that the region has a fair amount of road crossings and isn’t a high mile area, but traffic is usually less than further north, and there are some great trails to mix things up compared to what u r used to. actionjack 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nyskidooerinnewhampshire Posted February 22, 2019 Report Share Posted February 22, 2019 Returned from RDL yesterday -Thursday the 21st by means of the black trail. Parallel & or intersecting trails on Routes 20, 55 & 410 were all groomed & looking appetizing. In comparison to two weeks ago where the intersecting trails on 410 & 55 were bare or under water. Happy trails.... vt_bluyamaha54 and mcstar 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motonick Posted February 25, 2019 Report Share Posted February 25, 2019 We stayed at motel Blanchet in Nicolet 1st of Feb 2019, left truck and trailer there for a week no problem. My question is has any one rode out of La Cache a Maxime in the town of Scott in Chaudiere Appalaches area. How is truck & trailer parking and how is the trail out of the motel. is there side walk or road riding to be encountered? Heading up this friday to the area, any info would be great. Thanks.
