QUÉBEC SINGLETRACK EXPÉRIENCE

The third edition of the Quebec Singletrack Experience continues to refine an event that has quickly earned a reputation for great riding, a welcoming culture and excellent organization. The 2019 edition features six stages, one fewer than previous editions. Organizers, however, are adjusting the routes and have added more distance in an effort to have close to 100 per cent singletrack. The event is capped at 200 riders for 2019. Based on the Plains of Abraham near the historic Old Quebec City, the main camp allows participants to explore the oldest city in North America after a day’s ride. New this year is a companion package: friends or family can enjoy canoeing at Vallée Bras du Nord or taking in the old city. “We know from past years that riders really love the event,” says qse mastermind François Calletta. “Our priority is to give riders even more great singletrack, and give their companions their own great experiences.”
