    When I was younger all I wanted to do was go fast form checkpoint to checkpoint. Now that I'm older I like going slower and really taking in the sight's. The things you see in the Dead of Winter is absolutely Priceless!!

    We start in temescaming and do a 2000 to 2600 mile loop saddle bag trip on our turbos. We did it every year until covid. We are heading back up this winter. Last time we even rode into New Brunswick. Got stuck there for a day because of a big snow storm. 3' in one night right on the ocean. It was pretty wild!

    Whoa, whoa, WHOA....I'll agree that the Canadian trails are great but...they are for Canadians only! We spent many years Pre 2001 snowmobiling in Northern Ontario and Quebec and had a fantastic time each and every time but now US citizens need a passport and if you want to trailer your US sleds to Canada you need to COMPLETLY empty all the fluids and are subject to MAJOR scrunitny by Customs. Used to be you had sleds, customs waived you through. Not anymore. Me and my 3 genrations of snowmobiling family will stay in the US, Wisconsin, Michigan and NY.

    One of the big problems with Quebec riding, is in alot of the small towns you might go through, alot of the people are fairly ignorant and will treat English speaking people poorly. When you go around some of the bigger cities and more English speaking communities like in Gaspè where it's either French or English speaking and they hate each other, then it's a little different.
