    not too bad. There are things I would change the 2nd time round ( if there ever was one ) but for a first shot, it came out decent.

    Try to fit in a trip around the Cabot Trail. And, if you do, go counter clockwise around. Cambridge Suites is a decent hotel. Trouble is your planning a trip (with the exception of the Fortress of Louisbourg) where Sydney itself is pretty well a dumpy place. Be prepared, it's a chilly time of the year here.

    Don't forget, go counter clockwise. Stay in Cheticamp and stop by a restaurant/bar called Le Gabriel. At the sports section. Excellent mussels.

    I'm not sure about up that way, we don't have a whole lot of off road shops (that I know of) around here. I generally order my stuff online from the states, Amazon, or 4WP

    Hey thanks for the info. I live at the other end of the province and I haven't been anywhere for a drive in a while. I figured cape Breton cause I have never been. It doesn't take much too excite me. If you think Sydney is dumpy ,don't come to Yarmouth .

    @TacoMitch93 if I bought it, could it live in your garage? :poking:

    Wow , Cape Breton was a good drive. When to a wild life park and seen a bull moose and many other animals up close. Many things to check out if you want up there. Nice smooth roads too.

    Was coming back on the 101 coming from Windsor, and could not resist pulling off and doing a little exploring.
