Stopped at a light in Concord NH. Cop pulls up beside me and looks over. I tapped like hell on the top of my helmet. He lost it.

Back at Port Aux Basques. Grabbing the ferry back to Nova Scotia tomorrow. Sorry Dan, no food pictures today.

Pic from the whale trip and St. johns. St. Johns is a great town. They have a 10 block long party street. Right by our hotel. Family friendly party. Restaurants, bars, tons of shops. Great time. I did get a shot of the whale and a crappy video. It was when we were still far away. As we got close I stopped taking any.

lol. Rides across beautiful countryside. takes pictures of food on a plate. stay safe

Cod tongues and a moose burger for dinner.

Rode it on my 1st "fun" ride of the season around the Hocking Hills. Im out of shape for riding and I forgot to take ibuprofen at lunch... I'm pretty sore now. 🤭

So disappointed

Whale hunting was epic! Two schools of dolphins, and we found mother and calf hump back whales!! Mom did multiple full vertical launches, totally out of the water. She was huge! Tons of tail flips. No pics, too busy living the moment. It was amazing.

One less for bowdog to shoot, that is for sure.

Oh, and no matter what they say, the wireless Internet does not work at sea. It's always broke I was told. And it was a very calm ride. Honestly we probably didn't need to tie the bikes down.

I am assuming you are doing the North Sydney to Aux Port Basque run. Try and get the midnight to 7 am ferry and get a cabin and sleep. If you don't you end up spending the night before nearby, ride the noon to 6 pm and basically drive to another hotel. The night run seems to sell out pretty far in advance so plan ahead. If you are doing North Sydney to St Johns that is 16 hours, so you damn well better get a cabin. We had to take the noon run. Still got a cabin. Well worth it, you can get away from everyone and have at sea sex. Food and whatnot is actually pretty good. There is a bar too. You will be tempted to get there early. Don't bother. Loading won't start until 90 minutes before departure. They want you there 2 hours ahead, so 2 hours and 1 minute is more than enough. Lots of people came well after the 2 hour warning. All in all, it was a very enjoyable time except tying down the bike. Their straps blew dead goats. The ratchets were corroded with salt and you had to fight them. Plus I had to do it twice, old French dude in front of me had no idea what he was doing. There are moose everywhere you look.

Lot of Harleys at the hotel tonight.

Foggy, very cool and damp slab ride to northern NS. We are parked for the night right next to where we grab the ferry in the morning. Wife was very uncool and would not let me repel off the 12th floor of yesterdays hotel.

I was taking that route when you were still riding a Kawasaki. I have the written warnings to prove it. 😆 Side note: NHSP are very polite.

Shaved prime rib on a Yorkshire puff.

Casino in Bangor, then Stephen King's House, and the standpipe that inspired It. He wrote much of it in the park there.

You will want 9 and 7 across VT and NH.

Dover NH tonight. Dinner at Newiks Lobster House. If I am within a few hundred miles of this place I stop. It will be the best lobster you have ever had. Yes, it all comes on paper plates with plastic utensils. Deal.

Found @Pauly 's bike in Vermont.
