  • Day 2 of a 3 day motorcycle trip to complete the Cabot Trail on a Honda Monkey. I covered 470 kms from just north of the Canso Causeway, ending up somewhere in the Margaree Valley, Nova Scotia.
    Overall I covered 1,400 kms in three days on the little Monkey.

      Awesome! I strongly suggest doing the Celtic Shores Trail between Ingonish and the causeway sometime as well. Perfect little trail for the Monkey. Cheers!

      The Cabot Trail is definitely a bucket list road for anyone travelling in North America. The little Monkey trucks along just fine. Such a great little bike. Cheers!

    Cape Breton is spell binding isn't it. I miss it so much. I'm glad you had a great adventure there, and thanks for sharing it. This was such a great little series. The commentary is so good.

      Thanks man! A little series for the little bike. I had originally planned to film three parts but almost losing my camera because the case fell apart and the rain at the start of the last day just made me want to get home. I’m just lucky that the camera fell in my lap instead of bouncing down the mountain!😂
      I’ll be back in Cape Breton for sure with one of the other bikes so I’ll have more time to get to different places.

    Jesus man, thats a ton of riding, especially on a bike like that hahaha I loved the trip, I may want to do thst on mt AT this summer if I can, might hit ya up for a route and stuff to see. Good stuff man, keep the camera rolling !

    • @506motoadv
      @506motoadv  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks man! Yeah, you should definitely go to Cape Breton with the Africa Twin. There’s a bunch of other places I wanted to check out like White Point and Cape Clear but with the little tiny bike I barely had enough time to do what I did. Hahah
      Feel free to reach out, I’ll point you in the right direction. I’m probably going back for a long weekend on the CB500x this year to see more around Bras D’Or Lake and into the mountains. Cheers!

    Man you take fun adventures, and capture some amazing footage and views! There were a lot of ‘Holy’ spots in this one, a statement of the beauty that is Cape Breton. This was another fun video to watch, thanks for sharing the tiny lighthouse for a tiny bike, lol.
    Cheers, and safe travels in 2023!

    • @506motoadv
      @506motoadv  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks man! I usually do the Cabot Trail in the opposite direction so it had been years since I saw some of these views. And it was my first time to Meat Cove and the rail bed trail to Inverness is now on my list to do any time I am in Cape Breton.
      The little light house was pretty cool. I had no idea you could go inside until a woman came out of the house next to it and asked me if I wanted to see inside. The answer to that question is always “yes”!
      Cheers! And here’s to a great 2023. 🏍

    I may not hire you as a cameraman but I'd certainly love to have you as a guide through Cape Breton area! You keep your pace to an enjoyable level and seem to be able to find all those cool spots that I missed when I was riding the loop last summer!

      One of my goals with this channel is to seek out stuff that is off of the beaten path. I can’t count the hours spent searching Google Earth, Google Maps and TH-cam looking for stuff in areas I plan on riding through. I’m happy that you’re enjoying the videos. Cheers!

    Great video. Could you make a small video on you luggage rack's & bag setup. Thanks in advance.

    • @506motoadv
      @506motoadv  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I should probably do that. In the mean time, my rear rack is OEM Honda and the side rack is from Takegawa. I have an SW Motech drybag 80 on the side and an SW Motech drybag 350 on the back. Cheers!

      Oh I absolutely agree that it’s an amazing spot. But I got there too early in the day for it to be my spot to spend the night. Some day though. Cheers!

    Nice ride. May I ask what tank bag you have on your bike? Thanks in advance for a reply.

    • @506motoadv
      @506motoadv  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks so much! It’s an Oxford M7 Mini. It’s magnetic and has scratched my tank a little from dirt getting stuck to the magnets. I’m looking to upgrade to an SW-Motech Pro tank ring system. Cheers!

    Enjoying your videos! I'm from Ontario and you're hitting up most of the spots i want to visit in the near future. Can I ask you where you got that tent with the side canopy?

    • @506motoadv
      @506motoadv  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I’m happy to hear that you’re enjoying the videos. My tent is a Big Agnes Blacktail 2 Hotel. I believe I picked it up at atmosphere.ca when it was on sale. Cheers!
