smclelan Posted March 23, 2020 Report Share Posted March 23, 2020 Well the season has come and gone even though it did end a bit early. How did you do for total mileage? My season ended March 22, the last official day with: 7185 kilometers or 4490 miles quebec bob, GT Rider and zeusand 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snappy Hank Posted March 23, 2020 Report Share Posted March 23, 2020 My season ended (reluctantly), on 15 March with 3000 miles. Wanted to get one more week in starting on the 22nd, but as we all know that isn’t going to happen. Many many smiling miles though, for the season!!! Looking forward now to doing a spring order for a new SIDEWINDER LTX GT!! It’s going to be a loooong summer. Almost time to get the boat out! To everyone on QR, enjoy your summer!!!

GSX800 Posted March 24, 2020 Report Share Posted March 24, 2020 Unretiring after the first of the year did not bode well for many trips. That, coupled with a mild winter back home, = low miles. 1477 miles on one Quebec trip, and about 30 more on a muddy Saturday run on Tug Hill. I guess I’ll take the glass half full approach. Winter ended with feelings of wanting more riding, rather than feelings of I’ve had enough...if that makes sense?

Blueblood Posted March 24, 2020 Report Share Posted March 24, 2020 4000 miles on my 2020 xrs turbo. And about 250 miles on tug hill biggest year for me ever. I was lucky to get my last ride in before this covid 19 got real bad. But snow up in the north country has me wanting more. smclelan, PLAYHARD, Snohorse and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quebec bob Posted March 24, 2020 Report Share Posted March 24, 2020 I got to ride 25 days this year and managed 5249 miles, got over the border with 2 hours to spare before they closed it down on both sides late last week. One of the rides was 1950 mile solo event during the 35 below cold snap, oxygen helmet and absolute zero jacket were the best investment I have made in years, never cold, first 4.5 days saw no other riders.Finished the season with snowmaster and friend Jeff, wonderful season!! smclelan, Snohorse, GT Rider and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikerider Posted March 24, 2020 Report Share Posted March 24, 2020 I rode about 6,600 miles this season. Conditions out of RDL were excellent this year between mid January and mid March with only a couple short warm ups and no real rain events. I am thankful for all the friends that came up and rode with me, we had a great time. mike quebec bob, PLAYHARD, dooright and 4 others 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuse6 Posted March 24, 2020 Report Share Posted March 24, 2020 Some impressive miles many of you put on this season. Can’t wait until l’m retired so we can spend more time in Quebec. We did 4 trips from Ontario to Quebec 4,800 km, 3,000 miles Mont Laurier Cote Nord Gaspe twice Spend last week doing the Gaspe and a side trip into New Brunswick with my wife. Great trip with ideal conditions to finish the season. Numbers l’m not so happy with: 7,200 km total on the truck for the 4 trips 72 hours truck travel time. Everyone have a great summer and let hope we get through the present challenges ok.

mrgrumpers Posted March 24, 2020 Report Share Posted March 24, 2020 Only able to complete two trips from PA to Quebec. Amazing two great weeks, with the massive snowstorm on Feb. 27th. Our trail sleds were not liking that powder at all but it was fun. Everyone stay safe and have a great summer. Hope to see you all on the trails next year. 3494 km - 2171 miles Kyle & Mike GT Rider, groomer, quebec bob and 7 others 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thinksno Posted March 25, 2020 Report Share Posted March 25, 2020 3200 kms on new sled, 2400 in Quebec Abitibi-Témiscamingue region, rest in Ontario- I had a crazy busy winter at work but also had three trips cancelled last minute all for good reasons including last weeks due to Covid. Trails and hospitality were excellent as always, looking forward to some trips in Mt Valin, Saguenay and Gaspe next season. quebec bob, PLAYHARD, towing and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snohorse Posted March 25, 2020 Report Share Posted March 25, 2020 Not sure myself how many miles. Did three solid weeks with the forth dashed by the pandemic. 3-4 K MILES Have a real HAPPY PLACE to go to on the off season. Last day of touring Cote Nord trip #3 left did 2 hour morning 80 mile trip end run on fresh crisp White asphalt groomed trail. Weather was blue sky not too cold not too warm. Cruising 80-90 mph elevated terrain with sweeping corners. Priceless memory of the site of real estate go by and the tune of the 850 Rotax singing " This is sledding " Happy sledding Happy Life to all.

Andyman Posted April 3, 2020 Report Share Posted April 3, 2020 6602 km or 4102 miles. Had our last ride canceled due to the coronavirus. We all have to look toward next year and stay positive that this virus will be conquered and we can all have a great 2020-2021 season. Have a great summer everyone despite the tough times we are all going through right now.

smclelan Posted April 3, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2020 Andyman, I believe this is the first time I have put more miles on in a season then you. Next year if I can put one an extra 30,000 miles we would be about even. LOL We will get together when this craziness is over. Stay safe Mon Ami.
