Me and Northstar were up there for a few days between Xmas and New Years, it was quite the trip, just over 1000k of everything that Mother Nature could throw at us, from snow to ice pellets to rain and then back to snow all in one day, temps went above 0 to -25 that same night.. This will be my first rip through Quebec and first ride in two years. Last year the conditions were so on and off in Ontario I didn’t get out. With that and work nothing added up to getting out. I’m excited and may be my only trailer trip this year. Hoping the south comes around in February. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Pussy Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Make sure all the sleds have a mirror on the left side. A mirror on your glove may not be good enough if you are stopped at an intersection by police. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZR SLEDHEAD Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Mirror on your glove is for sure not acceptable, must be mounted to the left side of your sled (stick on convex will do) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either a stick on convex (not my preference to stick crap on my sled) or a clip on ATV handle bar mirror will go on the left. Thanks folks. Will try to get some nice pics despite the chill in the air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZR SLEDHEAD Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Foamy adhesive on them is not all that bad to remove later but yes sticking onto the sled goes against the grain for me as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do have a hand mirror and wish that would fly in the the case of being stopped and questioned but their regulations specify that it must be affixed to the sled. Rather just go the safe route. It’s not cheap to go in the first place. A fine as well would kinda suck. Only 10$ for a quick fix mirror. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZR SLEDHEAD Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 All I can say is, one on trip last year, sled with no mirror, owner was given a ticket / report while on another trip, rider with hand mounted mirror was ticketed, no talking the officer out of it in spite of his being an Ontario rider.

Me neither, and we have actually been stopped by the police as well......but as stated, it just takes one officer to not see things the same way as the last officer did.

That’s funny because I talked to a few other groups wondering if they were OC sledders and looking for a ScottyR. You were the only ones I didn’t ask.
