We headed from Sydney to the Cabot Trail on a beautiful warm day with highs predicted at 27 degrees Celsius. We first had an appointment at McKenzie Motorsports, 11 clicks after the red barn on the north leg of the Cabot Trail toward Cheticamp. We stopped in Sydney at two motorcycle shops but they didn’t have our tire in stock. At Gord’s, he was nice enough to call McKenzie’s and get things arranged for us for the morning. We rolled up at 9 and they were ready for us, and got us hooked up by ten. It was like having our own pit crew on the trail!!
Riding the Cabot Trail was epic!! Beautiful ocean views on the Acadian side of he trail. The roads were so fun to ride on motorcycle with twists, turns, and hills.
The ride through the Cape Breton Highlands National park was epic!! We have some videos we will upload later. We got a kick of the signs posted warning of the dangers of poison ivy… Not the 200 foot cliffs!
The roads were smooth and perfect for motorcycles, except one section where we took the coastal loop past White Point and Neil’s Harbour. Very bumpy, rough roads tough for a bike.
We stopped by the Gaelic College at the end of our ride, and decided to stay in Baddeck for another night after the mental fatigue Jeffrey had after the amazing ride.
We stopped by The Telegraph Hotel and got a cabin again, perfect after a long day of riding.
A quick dinner at the Yellow Cello with decent food, but a waitress with an attitude, then an early night. Hooha!! J&M

Wow – sounds like a great day for the trip. Glad you had good weather – not a trip you’d want to take in fog or rain. I remember that Cheticamp was quite lovely and recall having some authentic Acadian cuisine there, Too bad you didn’t have time to take in Inverness on the west coast of Cape Breton. They have a distillery – Glen Breton – where they make Single Malt Scotch and a very nice 5 star restaurant on the property. Do you remember the lobster dinner and ceilidh in Baddeck? Hope you introduced Jeff to some authentic Cape Breton Music Looking forward to the videos.
