[2019 - 2020 FCMQ Permit Prices]

This may be the year that I only buy a Quebec permit.   I bought both last year and only rode 2 days in Ontario.

Nope. BC & Alberta bound. Mountain sleds get top priority at BRP.

Yup.   Guys out west will be riding in late October on their MY20s.

My dealing with Action Trailers could have been better - the trailer was ready on time, but the guy who was supposed to install the license plate disappeared without attaching it - so ran all day without one. Received an email saying I left 'before they could put it on' - I assumed that the guy would have done his job and that it was on there. (the license plate attaching area is well out of sight - hope this doesn't present any difficulties later) Anywhoo, they had to be reminded to courier it to me which eventually happened - not a big deal on the surface, but I did pay close to $100 to get plated and registered.

Action Trailers is a "one and done" type of place.   I have bought a couple of trailers and tolerated the sales process because they had what I wanted and were priced fairly.   Service/parts on the other hand IS A JOKE.   Just hope you never need to take it back or need to order parts from them.   I had parts ordered for my Neo trailer for over a year.   They finally called to say that they had them so I drove 1.5 hours each way to go pick them up and the guy cant find them!!!   About an hour away on my way home, the guy calls and said I found your part but we close in 15 mins and I wont leave them behind the shop or anything for you.   What a sh-t show.

I carry tape like this is my fanny pack/tool bag when I am on my dirt bike.

Can’t beat Quebec trails . Think of it this way . You can get to a great resort in 6-7 hours with great riding in the mountains . Or you can go 8 hours to boring cochrane and ride flat all day with a wide open throttle

I am starting to agree with this statement.   I was in Quebec in early Feb for 6 days of riding and it was unbelievable.   Trail conditions, signage and the lodges/inns we stayed at were phenomenal.   I just went to Cochrane on the weekend and yes we way more miles on per day, but blasting down hydro lines at 80mph all day starts to get old.   We rode every day in Quebec from 10am-5pm and were averaging 240kms per day and we ride faster than avg.   

 

Its to the point that I am seriously considering buying a quebec permit and just planning 2 - 5 day trips next winter not even riding in Ontario unless I can leave from my back door.
