Laughs Here! Join a snowmobile
club There's still alot of grizzled old guys involved with the snowmobiling clubs, and their wisdom in all matters is priceless, but what will we do when they're gone? They have been working as volounteers for years, dealing with government officials, local land owners, and snowmobile organizations. Their experience and knowledge is irreplaceable. We need to encourage the younger riders to attend the committee meetings at the local club house, and realize that there is more to snowmobiling than having your day on the trails. It is a complex sport that relies on thousands of volounteers to keep it rolling. The youth have to step up to the plate. So, start with hot dogs and beer over a fire somewhere. The youth like beer! Hahaha. Invite the younger guys and gals to come out and cut brush or instal a new culvert, or build a small bridge over a wet spot. They can get their whole family out into the bush and work. Then when the winter comes and they ride through that bit of trail, they will take pride in it and feel a sense of ownership. The new friends they make while volounteering with the club, will keep the attraction going. Families working together towards a common goal is a rare thing now-a-days, and a good thing. Imagine being out in the woods with a chain saw on your atv with your teenagers, working side by side on a cool project, out in the fresh air. This is good family fun, and a time for bonding. It sure beats the hell out of working out in a gym somewhere, or worse yet, sitting on the couch playing some lame video game. zw
The snowmobile quebec website zenwaiter.com was created to give snowmobile riders traveling to Quebec to ride, information for all areas including St Zenon, Lac St Jean , Val Dor, Gaspe, St Michele, Latuque, Shawinagan, Quebec City and many other places in between. Snowmobile Quebec has become a major winter sport over the past 30 years and riding the 30,000 km of groomed trails has become very popular with American snowmobilers. one of the hardest things to find is accurate snow and trail conditions, especially early in the year, Our goal is to get the trail and snow conditions direct from Quebec snowmobilers and American riders that go out and get the trail reports first hand, we also ride snowmobiles in Quebec and usually start riding as soon as there is snow, Mt Valin, Val Dor, Lac St Jean, St Zenon, Wherever the snow is in the trail we go to ride quebec, There is a lack of quebec trail information especially on tour loops and area connection. we will be reporting our findings as well as that of others who wish to provide it, we have some locals in all areas of Quebec that will be working with us to get the snow and trail conditions for Quebec riders as early in the season as possible and direct them to the area in canada that has snow and more importantly connections for riders who snowmobile tour in Quebec. Most riders that go to snowmobile Quebec early in the year usually ride local to these areas and are afraid to venture out for the reasons mentioned, A lack of trail and snow information in other linking areas,. I hope to try and help this information pipeline for the trail system of the province of Quebec and provide Americans with more riding information so they can feel better about moving around to different areas. |

Tuesday, October 21, 2008 Montreal QC - - October 22, 2008: That's me on the left - In the centre is Marc Thibeault from www.motoneiges.ca , and on the right is Bob Petit, Quebec author, broadcaster, and snowmobile pioneer in Quebec. In English check out www.sledmagazine.com All three of us are using the Internet to promote truth, safety, sobriety, and sanity on Quebec Trails. We also write about the new technology, trail conditions, destinations, and more. We have all but abandoned the printed page, owned by the man, for the freedom and power of the Internet. Visit Bob's website here.. http://www.bobpetit.ca/
Bob uses hundreds of photos and videos to chronicle the history
of ATV and snowmobile activity in Quebec, and much much more. Bob
has a unique perspective, because he was organizing snowmobilers
back when it all began in the 1960's, and he has been recognized
by everyone, and every level of government and ngo's for over 40
yrs of volunteerism. He has won every snowmobile tourism honour
and award there is, and a few that were created just for him. He
still writes weekly articles for local newspapers and appears on
snowmobile tv shows regularly. He is Mr Snowmobile in Quebec, and
deserves our recognition and our respect. He has built a small museum
on his property, that documents the truth of Quebec's snowmobile
development history. Get ahold of me, and I can set you up a personal
tour. He is in St-Jean-de-Matha.. http://www.zenwaiter.com/ has been "on the air" (Internet air that is) for nine years. I found it exhilarating to have the power to spread good helpful information to the snowmobile community, and I found it cool to be part of the snowmobile family. When I go to a show, I get hugs and appreciation from my readers. I feel I have helped many people to create family memories with their favorite sport, by helping them to organize holidays and avoid some pitfalls. This winter I am still pushing ahead with three Radio Podcasts a week, where I interview everyone and anyone about sledding. I am also experimenting with my web cast on Blog TV. This is where I broadcast live and record at the same time, then store the video on http://www.blogtv.com/ Search for Zenwaiter. I also have a regional photo album, a YOUTUBE station with over a hundred video clips, a discussion board and way more, too much to mention. Marc in the centre, heads up a popular French language snowmobile magazine that is growing online. There was a huge buzz around his booth at the Quebec City Sled Show. He told me in an interview on Zen Talk, that he hopes to provide snowmobile trail conditions, provide an events calendar, and has a special long trial period evaluation program, where five of his gang get a free sled to drive around all winter. I guess they write detailed reports for the readers on their impressions of the machines. (I wish I had thought of that idea - I still have to pay for my own sled after nine years! hahah). Good for you Marc! I hope your web site will live long and prosper. You sure have people excited about it, that's for sure. Most of the articles I found on his site are press releases from the manufacturers, which is handy. If I have time this winter, I'll send you a few of my own to re-print on your English side. http://www.sledmagazine.com/
This woman rides over 7,000 kilometers per year on some of Quebecs best trails, somewhere midway between Quebec City and Lac St Jean, the inland sea. She is no Internet pretender - she's the real article. A special ed school teacher by day, and a sledder every weekend. Visit her web site for more http://www.admdq.org/ |
