revrnd Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 As has been posted earlier, Trudy's gas on E106 just north of Gilmour is no longer a gas stop. Lots of concern about the distance between Bancroft & Cloyne. I used the routing tool on the ITG & came up w/ 104 klicks. (Bancroft) B106E > E > E106 > 950 (Limerick & Mephisto lakes) > 960 > 1009 > 1009A (Sheldrake Lake) > 1009 > E101 (Cloyne) Apsley to Cloyne via Coe Hill > 146 klicks If you were coming from the south is the gas station in Madoc @ the 7 & 62 jct accessible from the trail?

revrnd Posted February 8, 2015 Author Share Posted February 8, 2015 which is no big deal as long as you have no closures at either end 3 gas stations in Bancroft. I know there's a Petrocan in Cloyne/Northbrook. I'm thinking there is another station (a Woods) in either Cloyne or Northbrook (was a Cat dealer in the past).

Viperules700 Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 they seem to have a water in there gas problem maybe due to not having fuel all the time some reported there sleds shut down after getting fuel last week Tinker was one I will no longer trust there fuel for now Some stations use to add water to dilute fuel to increase profits. Hope that is not what is going on here. Thanks for the heads up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I'll Ride Anything Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 Heard all this as well ^^^ but we did fuel 3 sleds there yesterday with Regular and they all ran last night -25 to -30 in the bush, it was damn cold. Didn't try premium. We were worried but had no choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I'll Ride Anything Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 Coe Hill gas station re-opening Mar 5 or 6th apparently. Some ministry approvals to get done then back in biz ! Trail no longer goes through the station but can access by same road trail top E used to use along back side of town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tessie11 Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 was at Trudy's on Thursday at 10:30am sold out of gas only diesel available Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I'll Ride Anything Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Trudy's was limiting gas for sledders to $20/sled last weekend for fear of running out. Coe Hill gas station reported to be re-opening next weekend (Mar 6) I will post update when confirmed open Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
revrnd Posted February 28, 2015 Author Share Posted February 28, 2015 They must only be getting a limited delivery of gas if sledders can empty their tanks in a weekend. Before they closed up south of Apsley in 2011, the XTR was on a COD basis w/ their supplier. W/ the Shell in Apsley closed due to their fire, the XTR was constantly running out of gas.

I'll Ride Anything Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Trudys sold out of gas today (Sat) both premium and regular, don't know if they had any since Thurs. Can't count on them for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

revrnd Posted February 15, 2017 Author Share Posted February 15, 2017 From FS today: Quote They were back to running out of gas or refusing to pump it on the w/end and no credit cards, I'll drive to Madoc or Coe Hill before I give them a nickel. Limerick Lodge is selling gas, he's asking for peeps to: Please call 613-474-2144 ext 3 and I will meet you at the fuel pump down by the lake. I haven't been over to Coe Hill yet this season, but apparently TOP E has been rerouted to go pass the gas station in addition to The Hideaway restaurant.

I was through there the weekend of the BBQ and the old E was back through Coe Hill. Some changes north of the gas station to the old 630 intersection.

I'll Ride Anything Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 Trudys open got gas there yesterday, they were out of regular so I believe they were rationing regular on weekend. I barely trust their gas so we pay ($1.39) for premium hoping it is more trustworthy. They take cash or debit not new they have been that way for awhile. Was told gas comes Tuesdays and Thursdays.
