OH I hate you right about now!

Enjoy your trip!

I keep hearing ongoing horror stories about organized theft up there, but it does sound beautiful!

Back to the Rollerskis:

I first saw them on a friends sled a few years ago. I thought it was too much to spend. But then we drove into town for lunch (approved in this town) and I was going crazy trying to control my sled, where he handled the whole trip as if he was in his car.

Now that I have them, I wonder what took me so long! They aren't really needed for strait runs crossing roads, and I would never bother to deploy them for that, but anytime turns or any maneuvering is needed, they excel!

They are spring loaded so they will self retract, or you can simply easily tip the sled from side to side, it's easier than is sounds.

Theft used to be more of an issue years back but it has got better in recent years. Most of the theft was happening around Quebec City. I do take extra precautions but I have never had an issue in many years now and neither have any of my friends. There are no theft issues in The Gaspe area...

You are right about this!

When you get back, if you want to lower your standards to ride some NH trails, let me know. I'm available weekdays also.
