MARCH

Cain's Quest Snowmobile Race
The story goes that Jacques Cartier, the 16th century French explorer, dubbed Labrador "the land God gave to Cain." Hence the name of snowmobile endurance race in western Labrador. The race will entail an approximate 1,200 km trek on ungroomed trails where teams of two riders and their snow machines race to the finish. Riders will travel rough terrain, brave sub-zero temperatures and test man against machine for a chance at the prize purse and of course bragging rights.
