Very cool Jonny. So you were there at the end of June. What was the average temperature?

Last year it didn't hit 20 degrees Celsius the entire time I was out there. The year before, it was high 20's in the Atlantic provinces, and low 30's (ugh) going through Quebec and Ontario. In 2004 it was quite temperate - low to mid 20's all-around. I still wouldn't go without my long underwear & rain gear.

Jonny Cannon:

This was one heck of a post. Thanks for the detailed information. It will be helpful for me as I plan a trip to NS this summer. Initially, I planned on the HD Posse ride, yet, it will take too long and don't have enough vacation time from work. The Cabot looks like a good trip for 12-14 days. BTW, how much was the ferry from Portland with the bike????

My friend and I are looking to spend a few days riding around NS starting June 21. We'll be coming from Massachusetts.

I have a couple of questions:

1. At that time of year, would you recommend reservations for hotels / motels?

2. If you could only do or see two things on Nova Scotia, what would it be?

Thanks,
LeonD
