I write a snowmobile web site for snowmobilers who come up from New York, NJ PA VT etc, to ride their sleds in Quebec Canada. I invite you to come have a look, and to read our snomobile blog too! We have free snowmobile trail information on Quebec and tackle such issues as snowmobile theft, snowmobile laws, and we have sponsors who sell Polaris snowmobile and Polaris quad atvs with very low milage at very low prices.
