Had a good group, nice weather, good food on Sat for the cleanup.

 

Great place. I helped out the owner a couple years ago. If I wasn't 2 hours away right now I'd be there to redeem my drink on the house I was promised. lol

 

Okay just show up and I'll spot the first. I been very lucky lately been getting a ride down to the meeting in a big chrsyler.Next meet I will have to reconfirm as shows Oct 11th. And big event on the weekend of 23rd of Oct.

 

For those members of the ORA and those interested in it, the monthly meeting is the 4th of Oct as the usual day is the 2nd monday of the month but the 11th is Thanks-giving. (Hymus Tavern 1930hrs) Nice short notice sorry just received it myself.

 

I missed it.. totally forgot about it. Any idea if there gonna have any runs for Rocktoberfest on the sunday as once again..couldn't get the saturday off

 

Getting ready for our first of the year offroading event in April (buddy run) - like to go just north of Mtl. Will let you know date when I know more - trails usually muddy at this time, if your interested please have the following on your Jeep: Tow hooks front and rear (or trailer hitch), tow strap (no chains), it will be a 1 day run. NO killer trails to break yur vehicle.Group of max 10 vehicles.
Interested offroaders can sign up in my profile to the under Group Memberships (Montreal Surronding) put yur name in there and I will advise yu the date..etc

 

i think its about time to put some news in this section of Quebec offroading -
A little late actually should have put it in before the event and not just after but I'll be more careful next time
Today in St Leonard D'aston (near 3 Rivers) Quebec 4by4 put on their first event more of a show and shine with many modified jeeps, they had a ramp and blocks, some vendors and of course a small but very quick service food trailer (the poutine was great) many different clubs from around Quebec showed up.From the amount of vehicles and people I would say it was a very successful event.

 

Mr White, when we gonna get some more pictures out of you :)

 

We have an issue right now with Chertsey and their park preventing us from accessing it, I heard that some atv's have been running illegal/noisy/speeding/though whatever.. but if your ride is a quite/legal plated vehicle/ you cannot something about atv have a strong federation behind them while the offroading clubs in quebec are mostly individually run we don't have the backing but its coming. So that said I haven't been to the area in some time to take anymore trail ride pictures. I would be very interested in knowing the loss of revenue the restaurants/gas stations/grocery stores/etc have had this year compared with last year..

 

August 12 to 14 About 1 1/2 hours from Montreal there is the annual Offroad Festival here is the website if anyone is interested:
