I figure that we will probably split into 2 groups as I totally agree with you on trying to ride with large groups.We have a well mapped itinerary so everybody knows where there going.The main thing for us is being a group for dinner and bar time.We used to do this on our big sled trips and it...

8 riders and 2 in the truck.One of the guys in the truck is a reporter for Rueters and will be documenting the adventure for future publication.I will be keeping a log on my Facebook page.I am hoping to have news on a 9th bike that be sharing and all of us blogging about it.

The day we go to the end Of the Trans Tiaga the truck will be staying at the Mirage so to be able to do that leg and back we will need the additional fuel on the bikes.At this point only the truck is coming with no trailer.We always decided to set the bikes up to be automatous incase the truck...

This is how I am carrying 20 litres of extra fuel.4 5 litre fuel jugs in a 65 litre map sack.

These are the tires that I am running.The consensus from the more dirt experienced riders coming on our trip is these will be ok.

I am going to stick with the Adventures rather than going with a more Dirt oriented setup.I will not be that aggressive on the dirt and if I was I would bring a more dirt oriented bike in the truck for those roads.There is still 3800 kms of good paved roads to rail on on this trip.

I ended up with Michelin Ankee Adventure instead of the Wilds due to a communication error.I think the Adventures will be fine as I was really concerned about the durability of the Wilds with all the pavement that we will be doing especially with the weight of my loaded bike including my...

We are doing both the North road and the Trans Tiaga.We have never done that before so it will be new to us.The logistics are a bit different as we will have to carry 20litres of fuel for the TT as after the Mirage the fuel supply is unknown since Air Sagenay closed.

Got the 1250 all prepped for the trip with new rubber and headlight & Rad guards for the anticipated 1500 kms of dirt on the 5300km trip.

Some of us are enrolled in this service for this trip. https://www.airmedic.net/home

Quebec is opening up. https://beta.cp24.com/news/2021/6/7/1_5459030.html

A really cool video of the TT that found me today.

We will be very lucky to get our ride in late June at this rate.We all have time cleared off so we will probably do a Northern Ontario ride if we cannot do our planned Northern Quebec ride.

That was as Feb 12th when we called up there.

According to Luc at the Mirage getting fuel there is quite sporatic and says it is better to carry our own fuel.

We also figure 20L on our bikes if fuel is unavailable.

We saw a lot of wildlife 2 years ago.Bears wolves,Caribou and lots of black flies!
