Le Platin

We started out day again in mid morning departing the Duck Cove Inn towards our next nights accommodation in Pleasant Bay, The Mountain View lodge.

The approach to our ride was slightly different than day 1. We planned to skip breakfast out and grab a nice lunch in Chéticamp before the ride started to head up into the mountains along the coast.

Leaving Margaree Harbour there were high wind warnings on the highway and I even had a warning come across my garmin during the ride to lunch. It was cloudy the whole way to lunch at The Doryman Pub and Grill. Cory started with some Fricto, a traditional Acadian dish, and then a club sammy. I opted for a Caesar salad to start and and a chicken sammy, which was much larger than I expected, but hit the spot.

The views along the coast were amazing and I was really looking forward to the second half of our ride where we’ll climb into the mountains. I expect the vistas to be amazing.Read more
