Cycling Nova Scotia
Hi Folks,
I have terrible internet connection so I've been MIA lately, but in that time, I've been able to plan a small tour for the end of August. I live in Bangor, Maine. Before grad school starts, I'm riding to Acadia National Park, hopping on the ferry to Nova Scotia, and I'll get 14 days in Nova Scotia for a brief tour. Does anyone have any experience riding here? Anything I should definitely see? Definitely Avoid? It's my 3rd tour in 3 summers... I'm pretty psyched ! Cheers, Dan |

It has been a few years since I toured Nova Scotia. I remember it as a fantastic landscape for touring and many friendly people.
Cape Breton Island is a highlight I can clearly remember with great climbs and spectacular views. Take your time and enjoy the scenery and people! Send me a message if you want some more information and I'll dig up my diary of the ride for more information. Best of luck, Ripple |

The Cabot trail in Cape Breton is spectacular. Lots and lots of hills, great scenery. Good camping there.......Keltic Lodge there would be a nice place to stay too. The south shore is really nice (south shore here means south east btw ).
