Riding Nova Scotia

[IAMTHEISLE]

I am tired of riding the lower 48. Time to get the passport and become a foreigner. I am giving myself two weeks to explore the unknown. Any and all info concerning Nova Scotia will be greatly appreciated. I plan on taking the ferry across from Portland Maine. Pick me up from there.

For starters the Ferry from Portland to Yarmouth will not be operating this summer. The government will no longer subsidize the ferry. The drive through New Brunswick is nice. I live in Dartmouth and rode to the Blue and the Grey in two days last year.

you may also want to look up the info for the ferry that crosses over to Grand Manan island. there is a light house on one of the points that can be used as a bed and breakfast. awsome sites about a 300 yard walk to get to across a walk bridge.

Ride up the eastern side of the St Lawrence Seaway, then around to across New Brunswick to Nova Scotia. Great ride, forget the ferry you have plenty of time.

Inland Nova Scotia riding kinda dull (scrub pine and dead Porcupines), ride the coast as much as possible, definitely more scenic.

Have fun, nice folks. If you do not speak french, then up the seaway you may need to order food by pointing, but that is ok the folks are nice.

Did the ride many years ago and really enjoyed it.

I came in at Buffalo and used a Queens Way highway to get to the Seaway, came back thru Calais ME.

Thanks Pete.
