Yes sir, going to be fun grooming this winter. Thank you to Port Perry for the Drag donation about 4 or 5 years ago. It served us well, it was an 8 footer but with our bigger groomer we needed a 9 foot.

This year we're staging in Cochrane (hitting the snow on the 29th) & doing the loop in the opposite direction. I'm peeling off @ Timmins for Cochrane while the rest of the gang ride for 2 more days of riding thru KL, Gowganda & Timmins.
Not sure of my route back to Cochrane. It's been a few years since I've ridden TOP C up to SRF, so I may post something on OC or Faceplant a day or 2 before to see if anyone is running that way & 'tag' along w/ them.
Seeing as how the guys enjoyed my travelogue last season, I post a few pics daily & report our journey.
I just hope that the 'speed demons' will have left some snow on TOP A & I don't have to invest in a pair of Rouskis...
P.S.: Just remembered that this winter is the 20th anniversary of my 1st trip up north. A week of riding starting in Capreol.
Capreol - Elliot Lake
Elliot Lake - Chapleau
Chapleau - Hornepayne
Hornepayne - Kap'
Kap' - Iroquois Falls
Iroquois Falls - New Liskeard
New Liskeard - Capreol
I think it was around 1300 miles on a '98 MXZ 500.
Yiur trip is longer as you have to use Dub 1 (D108A) now, not changed on the map as the trail is not on that side It's 13kms more then the other way. lol

I would be out already with our groomer packing but we where told we can not go out with groomers before Dec 1 because we would not get paid for our hours and also for insurance. Maybe there is different policies in other districts.

Hey Luc-how much snow up your way?
We got over a foot now, lot's in the forecast on the way and usually, we get lots of lake effect snow that they have not forecasted...... so looks like an early one this year.

Finally new owners with some pride. This once proud landmark may well have a future again! The new owner Anu has invited the club to base our groomers and fuel tanks there again as well as having given us the full use of the shop for service.
Our family went there for dinner tonight and it was quite good the restaurant and bar are both freshly painted and very clean. They are understaffed as they will have to attract a whole new team as the old owner had run it right into the ground. Over all I am impressed and optimistic.
That's great news Bill, last time I was there with the old owners the place was not too inviting, they had pluming problem, water was brown, could not give a bath to my 2 girls. I had been there with the owner before and it was night and day... glad new ownership now.

Glad to see you back on here Luc, you should post a link to your Podcasts!! I'm sure the guys would like to hear them.
Thanks, it's been a while, I usually show up here every start of a new season to catch up with my friends on here. I was not sure if anyone had posted on here. I dont have much experience post files and links on here anymore it's been a while. lol

I was told by our Club President that we needed this to get a Driver abstract..... Anyone else heard this or this only my district asking for this? Since I steeped down from club president I'm not always in the loop for district stuff..... live is good now.... I can do trail work and do signs... it's what I like

-12C over night, day time highs for the last few days are around -5 -5C light snow on the ground, perfect weather for the start of the season. Long term forecast not showing any warm-up in Dubreuilville.
