Hello Paul, just found your channel. So interesting and fun to discover those trails around here. As i'm a newcomer to gravel biking, it opens the grounds for future rides. One question. What type of wheels are you riding on your new Stigmata? Brand? Size? Etc. Thanks
@pss999 13 сағат бұрын
They're 700c carbon wheels I bought from Light Bicycle. They've been great, had them built up with excellent Industry Nine hubs. I'm using them instead of the (excellent) wheels that came with the Stigmata simply because I already had them from my old bike and they were already set up tubeless with my tires of choice (Specialized S-Works Pathfinder Pro, 42mm).

Nice ride. I do it often to go to Yamaska park and then continue on the Campagnarde to Drummondville. It looks like you took a few unnecessary detours and missed a few of the indications. There's pretty much always a bike path or a painted lane but unfortunaty sometimes it's not really clear where the path is going and we end up along busy roads. You kind of have to be familiar with it and do it a few times before it becomes intuitive. The two closed bridges are because of arson. Both of them have been burned and reconstruction takes a very long time because of provincial delays (surprise). It's also possible to do a loop using the Route Verte that goes through Farhnam. When I started the video I thouhgt you were actually going to do that loop. The route is a bit longer but less busy. And the Route des Champs introduced a rule of having pedestrians walking against bike traffic a few years ago and I really dislike it. When it's busy you have pedestrians walking at you, and you can't pass them easily because there are other cyclists in the opposite lane trying to go around pedestrians also walking contraflow. It's all very cahotic when the path is busy. In fact, the whole cycling infra around Granby is very nice, but also very patronizing. Like get off your bike to cross a street, panels every intersection telling cyclists they don't have priority, panels telling cyclists to slow down, and pedestrians walking contraflow. Very nice but I avoid during busy times.
@pss999 Ай бұрын
Cool, thanks for the info. And yeah, I agree about the patronizing infrastructure, same all through Quebec. Lots of "get off and walk your bike" BS here in Montreal too. Yeah, I'll get off and walk my bike when you get out and push your car lol.

Nice ride. So what's the story about you can't ride highways in Quebec? Is that for real? I ride ALL the highways/ freeways around Edmonton. >>> I was in Montreal on my 2 month car trip from Edmonton to Halifax, then thru 22 states and DC. I had my 1973 CCM with a new SA 3 speed on the roof. My hotel was the Metropolitan for 3 nights, weird how near all the hotels are along that freeway. The second day I went around DT, DQ lunch in old town, Forum tour then over the Champlain bridge. Then bumbled around the island and found that race track, happened to be the day before the triathlon I think. I did 2 laps with a rest between. First lap I paced a 50+ lady pretty well, LOL. Next lap was 3 older guys that gave me a better draft. LOL. After dark I played some roulette in 2 hours, real nice place. Then went home in the dark, without any light on the bike. 34 miles. Another day I went to the botanical gardens, stopped at a bike shop then west to the Mount Royal boundary and back. I'm not climbing that. LOL. Toronto, Ottawa, Q city were fun and easy too. >>> In 2018 I rode a 3,900 mile loop to Vancouver, Seattle, Portland, Spokane, etc. Zero miles on stupid bike rail trails between cities. I'm 70 now, still doing 10 highway rides a summer, 90 to 120 miles. I've done 7 up to 133.6 miles.

Nice, amazing rides you've done! Yeah, I think it's common for not allowing riding on highways in the East, simply because there are alternate routes easily available on smaller roads. I know that in many Western states you're allowed since there are no other options (much of Arizona for example), but not always (mostly when there are alternate routes available on smaller roads).

As a Quebecer myself, cycling infrastructure is a sore point. There is a lot of talk here about bikes, but action is very slow sometimes. Many "bike paths" are simply stencils on the side of the highway. But then, here in the Outaouais, the National Captical Commission has improved our TransCanada Trail near the Ottawa River, but made it wide enough for huge trucks to pass. It is no longer a "trail" but a highway. They do the same in Gatineau Park, which they control. I know they are federally run, but there seems to be a pattern of inconsistency and passing the buck, in my humble opinion. I think for the Rigaud bit to be improved, we have to talk to the rail people, who allowed the Ontario parts to be built.
@pss999 2 ай бұрын
Oh I'm with you on this. Drives me nuts that here in Quebec they just do a lot of painting a very narrow "path" on the road and call it a day, all while recent studies have shown that sharrows and paint on the ground is actually worse than doing nothing at all for improving safety for cyclists and pedestrians. Paint is not infrastructure. And police harassing cyclists and victim blaming isn't helping, all while they seem to have given up policing people texting and playing with their phones while driving.

Oh man, the very first ride we did there was WAY tougher than our ride ha ha! We started with the Appalachian Gap which is no joke (I've done it a number of times though), then we went and did Lincoln Gap, which neither of us had done before: it's famous for having the steepest paved mile in the entire USA! The final 2 km averages 16%, with pitches up to 24%. I had to zig zag much of it, even though I had even easier gears than I did on our ride (42t front, 52t rear!), and 400 meters from the top my HR was pegged at 175 and I had to stop and have a little scream and catch my breath for a minute before I could continue. We passed a couple other cyclists who were having a hard time even walking their bikes up. Then on the way down we had to stop to let our brakes/rims cool down. Absolutely bonkers.

No way could I take my hand off the bars to start/stop the camera during the steep parts. I purposefully routed us up the paved side so Griffin wouldn't have to climb on gravel on his road bike.

I don't remember all the exact settings, but it was all done based on the tutorials by @GreatDayForAHike so be sure to check out his channel. I think it was 3200 iso and 20 seconds exposure, but I don't remember exactly, because at first my guess (based on his suggestions) let in too much light because I'm in the city and there is tons of light pollution, so I had to lower the exposure time so the images weren't too bright. You just need to get out there in the dark and take some test shots to get a feel for the exposure time for your situation. Sometimes things work out, sometimes they don't with time lapses. I did it using RAW still images so I had the maximum ability to edit the images in post. I used his free suggestions (Raw Therapee) but they were pretty crummy to be honest, so if I did it again I'd just re-subscribe to Adobe Lightroom since I'm familiar with that and it's WAY better and faster.

Thanks for this very informative video. I was riding in Rigaud many years ago and do remember seeing a CN sign advising cyclists not to ride on the old rail bed. I believe your video shows why! It was not supposed to be connected to the Prescott Russel trail, even though the train used the same route. There was also some concern years ago with riding the Prescott-Russell trail when it first opened because it was apparently covered in slag (scories), the dust from which, was not that good for health. However, I see now that it has been covered with fine gravel and is well-maintained. I don't understand the part about someone's backyard though. The trail map doesn't show that. The Ottawa-Wakefieled rail trail has also been recently upgraded, with new gravel applied in recent years.
@pss999 7 ай бұрын
On Google Maps (and other maps) it does show a bike path/trail leading all the back to that crazy rough bridge I started (and finished) on, so I just naturally assumed that the trail had been extended on the Quebec side all the way to Rigaud (which would make sense). Since the P-R trail is an Ontario "feature", I didn't expect the official trail map to show anything in Quebec necessarily. And while there is a trail of sorts (ski-doo trail actually) that keeps going along the rail bed, as you can see in the video it just gets rougher and rougher and more wild until it ends in the forest, just a few hundred meters from Rigaud! So I had to walk down that little path which in fact led to a housing development on the edge of Rigaud and found my way back to a road where I could get back to my car (super close). And on the Rigaud side it DOES look like they're doing some bulldozing/clearing where the trail exists just for a few hundred meters, so I'm guessing they are looking to extend it (hopefully).

Having that front suspension makes a massive difference for me on really rough sections (and I have a bad shoulder, so anything that helps is welcome). I wouldn't bother with a Lefty, too proprietary. It is heavier though and makes the bike less lively... no free lunch.

But on this ride here, as you can see, parts of the trail are more pea gravel and it can be a bit soft and loose, not ideal for narrower tires, and while some of the gravel roads were again fine, others would have been horrible (starting at 1:06 in this video), with rough roads and big chunky sharp gravel... would have been very sketchy and puncture-prone (it has happened to me in the past on 28-32 road tires).
