Where to go for the summer holidays? While some members made the decision to postpone their travel until 2021, the majority indicated in a survey that they would go somewhere. Most in Quebec, some in other Canadian provinces.<\/p>\n

For the six fans who responded to our offer to write about their passion for motorcycle road trips<\/a>, there’s no question. They’ll swallow miles of asphalt, as they say, to enjoy the freedom that their mount gives them.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”93142″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][vc_custom_heading el_id=”enjoy_the_advantages” text=”Enjoy the advantages” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left” google_fonts=””][vc_column_text]Jonathan, one of the six in the group, says the freedom<\/strong> his motorcycle gives him has allowed him to get to places few people could have got to at his own pace. For example a detour on a dirt road for a breathtaking view of the Grand Canyon, or crossing the Colorado Mountains via rugged trails.<\/p>\n

“I’ve crossed rivers in Central America where even a JEEP wouldn’t have dared to get his wheels wet,” he adds. Charles, his biking road trip friend, says the same: “We really go where we want “<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

For Emmanuelle, who travels with her spouse, the advantage of this mode of transportation, in addition to seeing the landscape, is that it allows her to smell<\/strong>everything. In the Gasp\u00e9 Peninsula, the salty air delighted her. She likes the slowness of the motorcycle road trips she undertakes and the fact that she travels with the bare necessities.[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_empty_space height=”46px”][vc_single_image image=”93114″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”93132″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][vc_single_image image=”93094″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text]St\u00e9phane agrees and points out that he can enjoy the sun and the temperature when it’s good. He particularly enjoys meeting other motorcyclists<\/strong> along the way and being able to exchange with them. We both agree we cannot do this when in a car.<\/p>\n

Plus…fuel economy<\/strong> does the trick.[\/vc_column_text]
