Nov 24 2014 : “I connected with Alex Beaulieu through Instagram and his chopper blog called 86cy-cles. We started shipping each other moto related stuff for a while. The idea of meeting for real came up, and Alex and his friends told me I was welcome to their town; so I packed my gear in August 2013 and traveled to Montreal, rented a car without insur-ance, and drove 6 hours North to gather with some of the funniest and nicest people I have ever met. I knew back then I had a good feeling about this whole trip, but I was far from imagining how cool it would turn out. Alex and his friends opened their homes, lent me motorcycles, taught me how to use a lathe, and basically took care of me for the whole time .

People from Québec have this reputation of being friendly, but there’s much more. Their sense of humor and open minds have no limit, and I can’t thank them enough for the hospitality.

This journal is the result of a 2 weeks trip to a small town of Québec called Rivière du Loup.”
