On a quest to find the very-best bike rides in Québec.
I have seen a mink in the wild.

2 drops of maple sap dripping out of a Sugar Maple tree through a plastic tap into a covered metal sap bucket today 30 March 2026 on Covey Hill Road in Havelock, Quebec.
40 drops of maple sap make one drop of maple syrup.

I crossed the Havelock Fault at all three of the locations below!
This is the location where the fault crosses the Sentier du Paysan bikepath.
Havelock!
Véloroute des Bleuets bike-path/bike lane ride around Québec's Lac-Saint-Jean in Saguenay is now an international bike tour destination.
It's "A Unique North America Bike Destination!"

Early spring ride and at one point the bike path (it's sheltered in the forest) was still covered in solid water.
This is not the good kind of "First Tracks."
Icy part wasn't very long.
Today's ride was an "early spring" ride.
Nice north-south country-roads ride south of Montreal today: Howick to Havelock.
4 ride segments were re-paved last year, 3 were a surprise to me (late-year repaving) that was the kind of surprise that is a very good surprise.
An A++ ride for sure.

Today's weather is the kind of day that makes you appreciate yesterday's weather.

Crossed the new bicycle level-crossing across CP tracks at de L'Épée between Parc Extension & Outremont.
One-block zig-zag on Beaumont then it's Querbes north to the 40 & Marché Central.
This is a big improvement getting over these train tracks that have a very limited number streets crossing them.
