ELECTRIC BIKES

Quebec mountain bike centers only accept “class 1” electric bikes equipped with a “pedal” motor. To be part of class 1 as an eMTB, we are talking about a bike with a speed limit of 32 km / hour. Thus, when reaching this speed, the motor immediately ceases all electrical assistance. In class 2 (prohibited on the trails), there is a bike that has the same speed limit, the assistance of which is generated via a lever on the handlebars without requiring pedal strokes from the user.

CLOTHING, PROTECTIONS AND RISKS

Wearing a helmet is mandatory at all times to access the mountain bike and fat-bike trails, as well as to access the off-trail ski area.

During your mountain bike outing, it is strongly recommended to use additional protections such as knee protectors, elbow protectors and back protectors.

In preparation for your visit to our trails, first find out about the weather conditions and plan your clothing and equipment accordingly.

Mountain biking and hiking:

Provide a backpack for carrying essential items such as water bottle, food, cell phone, troubleshooting tools such as levers, pumps and inner tubes.

You should wear sports sneakers and prioritize light clothing such as shorts and t-shirts made of synthetic materials rather than cotton. Bring a windbreaker for cool days and sunglasses for sunny days! Don’t forget your sunscreen either.

Winter sports:

Prioritize successive layers and avoid cotton! Provide a backpack for carrying essential items such as a water bottle, food, cell phone and a change of clothes. On a fat-bike, the feet and hands are particularly vulnerable to the cold, bring warm boots and good gloves. In general, having a front light in your backpack can be very useful.

The practice of the activities offered at Les Sentiers du moulin takes place in semi-natural or natural environments, possibly rugged, which, consequently, are further away from medical services.

There could be a response time during an emergency requiring evacuation (rescue) and, consequently, a possible aggravation of the injured person’s condition that could lead to death.

The risks include those described below, but are not limited to them. By accessing our trails, you accept the nature of these risks as an integral part of the activity, as well as the consequences that may result.

Usual risks inherent in the activity:

  • Sloping and uneven terrain, with little or no apparent obstacles, where a person can get lost or find themselves in a dangerous situation;
  • Falling debris caused naturally or by other users;
  • Rapidly changing weather conditions without warning signs;
  • Negligent behavior on the part of other users;
  • Wild animals;
  • An injury caused by an impact or a fall against a stubborn object or obstacle (branches, equipment, etc.);
  • An injury caused by movement (sprain, strain, fracture, etc.);
  • Injury resulting from accidental or non-accidental impact with another participant;
  • Hypothermia.
  • A heatstroke.
