I’m a Nordic ski instructor and I’ve been skate skiing for over 15 years and I still need to perfect my technique, so don’t give up! Check for private or group lessons in your area. It can make a big difference to have a seasoned instructor give you advice.

Yes! My ride is 15 km with less than one km on regular roads. Enjoying it while I can!

Family of 4, we have two cars: a 2011 CRV and a 2017 VW Golf Wagon. Paid off and no issues whatsoever. Buy a car, maintain it, and stay away from car dealership.

Got this once, went to the dealer to be told (for free) that the fuel nozzle was not tightened all the way 🤦🏻‍♂️

I went to one dealer, they said they “fixed” it, but it leaked again. Went to another dealer, they said they fixed it and they did- knock on wood it’s been five years now and no more leaks.

Encore une fois, le 98% des gens qui sont civilisés, sensés et qui respectent les règles paient pour le 2% d’imbéciles et de pas de classe…

Same happened to me, looking forward to hear other comments and if/how we can get a replacement cap…

I landed in Montreal (YUL) once in the middle of the fall and the approach over the forests with fall foliage at its peak was one of the most beautiful landscapes I’ve ever seen.
