Lobsta Run

« on: July 09, 2011, 11:54:15 AM »

Since I was a teenager, I've wanted to visit Nova Scotia. This summer Craig and I made a lobster run there. We made stops at Americade (4 days) and Laconia (1 day) before taking a total of 3 ferry rides and spending a week in NS. We had more rain than we wanted but still had enough good weather to enjoy our trip. I tow a Roll-A-Home and Craig has a Time Out trailer. On the last day there we crossed to Prince Edward Island before heading West again. Photobucket seems to have shuffled my photos, so they're not in order. 8650 miles round trip.

Good thing I post pics as we never woulda met

I was walking thru the vendor expo at americade and you yelled out "Oss"

Sorry we never ran into each other again, was looking forward to some riding in the Adirondacks with you two once it stopped pouring

Glad you two had a great time.

Next time I am in Westernbikers neck of the woods I will give you a heads up.

Thanks for the pics Sandy, can't wait for my turn. Come on B, grab the week off after Inzane, I am leaving Sunday from Bellaire, heading over the Big Mac and International, then turing East through Toronto and Ottawa ending up in NS around Wed. Not sure about Prince Edward Is, need to be back in MI by Sunday.

Dagwood: If you only have limited time there, you have to ride the Cabot Trail. Stay in Baddeck at the Inverary Resort. It's at the start/finish of the trail. Up on the trail, stop at the Coastal Waters Pub & Restaurant in Ingonish. It's the only place you'll find motorcycle T shirts for the trail. No other place carries them. A biker in Antigonish screenprints them and chose only one place to sell them.
