Heading to Gaspe on the 21 of January 

No concerns related to Covid restrictions? I guess if you are normally in bed by 8 PM, the curfew is not a big deal!!

No I’m not in bed by 8 lol .But you got to do what ever it takes to ride . I’ve told you before kinda hard to ride when we are dead .Besides I like a challenge when a trip goes perfect it’s kinda boring .

Just an FYI the current Quebec curfew is 10pm.

That is correct, 10PM - but that does not mean you need to be asleep.

You can even walk your dog.....or work, as long as you have a piece of paper that states you are working......:coffeenose:

Been dealing with getting work done in QC for the last year, during the curfew - no issues at all.

Cans got those trails closed about ten years ago.

 

Guessing before QC really tightened up the exhaust restrictions........but I am thinking the demographic that own property around the resort were also happy to see the trails gone regardless of loud exhaust.

I’m really missing riding central Quebec area.. Been riding all over Ontario and Quebec, around Gaspe once but personally the area around Mount Tremblant is my favourite.

i love all the covered bridges in that area!

I love riding in Quebec but I think I may stay in Ontario this year unless they drop the current restrictions.   I am not really into eating a gas station sandwich in a parking lot at -20c for most of my meals.    Part of the Quebec experience is trying some of the awesome restaurants that are on the trails.   

 

If things loosen up, I would like to head back to Gaspe for a 4-5 day run in March.

Anyone know if the warm up shacks in QC were “closed” last year?

Even in QC, sometimes the only food available is inside the gas station, using cases of beer as a table. :-)

Only a sensible person wouldn’t get the jab….right. 
 

Honestly though, other than clients wanting to go out, dining out is no longer something we do. We used too each Friday dine out as a family, haven’t in a long time due to the sillinesses. 
Last year riding just meant more seat time vs waiting in restaurant, not so bad….sure saddle bag trip would be different of course.
