Ride #13 - Winter Ride, Saturday, November 19, 2011, sponsored by Truchon Fuel Sales
On our last ride, we left the Crystal Falls church parking area at around 9:45 a.m. It was a cloudy
but nice day. Fifty-four members and 45 ATV's attended this winter ride, our last one of 2011. We stopped for a few
breaks along the trail and arrived at Tomiko Restaurant at 1 p.m. The restaurant was full and I wish to thank Roger and Charlene
Côté for their hospitality. There is a brand new trail that goes directly to the restaurant. Thank you,
Jean-Marc Dupuis, for sending us buttertarts that we enjoyed on our first break. Along the ride from Crystal Falls to
Tomiko Restaurant, Go Riding TV made a video of us on this ride and interviewed a few of the members. I think the club made
a good impression.
The ride was 72 km long. Leader was Claude Patenaude Center Guide was
