new member from Quebec

Hello, I have joined not a long time ago. We have a lot of snow here and I can't wait to ride (still have to wait a few months....)

Soon I will be retired and I expect to ride more down to the south.

Welcome to the forum! I loved my trip through the Gaspe Peninsula along highway 132 a couple of years ago. Lots of information and help to be had here.

I was bored in this area of the country

Welcome to the group

Bienvenue. When the winter is finally over, head across the border to Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine. It's amazing how much better most of the roads are soon as you cross to the USA. I'm in western QC, just off the Montreal island. Trop de neige ici aussi. Je deteste l'hiver.

I know, two years ago we went down to Virginia beach, Washington and Boston. The road are much better.
Next summer we plan to go again.

You are in Quebec City?

Welcome and happy riding.

If you end up doing any travelling to the East Coast, be sure to look us up (BMWONS).

BMWONS (BMW Owners of Nova Scotia - MOA Chartered Club # 097), do rides and some get-togethers. This year's Bluenose Rally (celebrating its 47th year!) is June 30th - July 2nd. It is an FIM International Rally and once again has been designated the FIM North American Continental Rally. Fee is $60/CDN and includes the Friday evening Bararian Beer Garden, camping & RV space, breakfast Saturday morning, dinner Saturday evening and All You Can Eat buffet brunch on Sunday.

We (BMWONS) host the Bavarian Beer Garden on the opening night (Friday), with all the beer you can drink included in the entry fee (from a local Micro-Brewery). We serve it from our Roundel painted 1950's era fridge. There isn't a Rally in North America, that I know of, where you get more for your money. ;-)

If you want a late season ride, we do a Fall Colours Cabot Trail ride that I've scheduled for Sept 28th - Oct 1st.
