#### About me

To be short, I’m a snowmobile and ATV enthusiast. In fact, these 2 hobbies became, over the past 12 years, a lifestyle. I live on the border of the Bas-St-Laurent and Gaspesie in Quebec. So, I have access to a large playground of thousands and thousands of km2. Loving to discover new territories, I also visit other region in order to practice my favorite sports. I prefer to ride in the Federated trails maintained by snowmobile and ATV clubs. I can then discover the beautiful scenery that the east of the country has to offer.

### Chroniqueur & pilote d’essai Motoneiges.ca & InfoQuad.com

#### À propos de moi

Je me définis comme un passionné de Motoneiges et de Quad. En fait, ces deux loisirs sont devenus, au cours des 12 dernières années, un mode de vie. Je demeure à la limite du Bas-St-Laurent et de la Gaspésie alors j'ai accès à un vaste terrain de jeu de plusieurs milliers de km2. Aimant découvrir de nouveaux territoires, je visite également d'autres régions afin de pratiquer mes sports favoris. Je préfère rouler dans les sentiers fédérés entretenus par les clubs de motoneige et de quad. Je peux alors découvrir la beauté des paysages que nous offre l'est du pays.
