Hi Rich

We are looking very forward to seeing you guys as well. Our fingers are crossed that we get some good snow from this storm so we can have good conditions as things are not the best at this time but the snowfall warnings are posted.

My riding partner and I will be arriving in Shawinigan on the 14th and the heading out for 10 days the next morning. I am trying now to figure out a way where we could to stay at 100 lacs the 20th or 21st when passing through. Hope to see you there. It may depend on conditions in the Val d'or area as that would help us spread things out. :drinks:

Great snow throughout that region. Trails good to excellent. You should have no problems getting there from Shawinigan. (or from Val d'Or via 83)

Shortest way is 318 to St-Michelle, then TQ33 thru Manawan to TQ 13. About an hour to Cent Lacs from the 33/13 intersection. If you like to ride, that would be a good day's ride. I'm guessing 280 miles.

Other choices would be to head up to La Tuque, then take TQ73 up to TQ 83. Take 83 west, thru Parent, and get on TQ 13 South just beyond Parent. That's a two day ride for most guys. Another would be to take TQ 63 out of Shawinigan, over to Mont Laurier. Jump on TQ13 north there.

Hope to see you guys there.

Depends whether you would go thru Ste-Agathe and try to screw around with TQ 43, trying to take 323 or 315 to get up to Mont Laurier, or to go thru St-Donat thru the Park, and take TQ 63 to ML. 43 has a few "missing links" this year with portions closed or re-routed I am told, and it might be a little squirrely that way. (Mid Range or one of the guys who rides that area might have more info on that).

Going thru the Park, i'm guessing 260 miles. Cent Lacs is about 2 hours from Sainte-Anne du Lac.

hope to see you. the attendee list is growing. should be a hoot. call Cent Lacs if you can make it.

Anyone have any info on TQ 43, from Ste-Agathe over to Val-des-Bois?????

greetings Steven

I will have to interogate Chopper, but I would take a wild guess and say it's around 20, and growing.
