One of the most popular destinations for North American motorcyclists is Nova Scotia and its famous Cabot Trail on Cape Breton Island. This new travel guide written by local motorcyclist and travel writer, Rannie Gillis, is the complete resource for any two-wheel traveler wanting to visit the high points of this beautiful part of Canada. The book covers not only Cape Breton Island and the Cabot Trail but also the rest of Nova Scotia, as well as the neighboring provinces of Labrador, Newfoundland, Prince Edward Island, New Brunswick, and eastern Quebec including the wild and wonderful Gaspe Peninsula. Each trip has a detailed route description, easy-to-follow maps, and unique photographs -- all brought to life by Gillis'  informed and colorful narration.  Local customs, history, tips for rider-friendly restaurants, ideas on unique lodging, comfortable campsites, and information on the border crossing between the US and  Canada are included.
Rannie Gillis is a seasoned motorcycle traveler who lives in Nova Scotia and has written several popular travel books about Cape Breton Island and Labrador. He grew up in North Sydney and still lives in the family homestead about two miles from the Cabot Trail within sight of the ferry landing to and from Newfoundland.  During good weather, he typically rides the entire Cabot Trail about twice a week!  A colorful raconteur and historian, he is the perfect guide to help other riders planning a trip to Atlantic Canada.

"Motorcycle Journeys through Atlantic Canada is broken down into 33 trips covering Quebec, New Brunswick, Prince Edward island, Nova Scotia Mainland, Cape Breton and Newfoundland and Labrador.

Great roads, scenery, fresh seafood and no traffic to speak of - what's not to like?" - BMW Owners News
