Just got back from a 6 day trip out to Cape Breton on the east coast of Canada with a few friends. I put a Ram mount on the bike to take some video and photos. here is a little sampling of the result.

Very Nice Max C! Beautyfull roads, without traffic? I'm heading up there in early September because I'd heard there would be motorhomes all over the place during the summer...not so apparently?

Did you have the camera mounted on the handlebar? Nice steady shooting! Thanks for posting...We WANT MORE, MORE MORE!!! :lol:

Hi Beemer

We were pretty lucky with the traffic. Mid week wasn't so bad. I used an underwater camera housing and mounted it to the handlebar with a Ram mount. The housing was just to protect the camera from high speed bug hits. You will have a blast on the trail. Worth getting up early and going both clockwise and counter clockwise between Baddeck and Cheticamp. That alone, will take an entire day.

For a minute there, I thought Canadians drove on the left, only to see that was on the ferry. :oops: Nice video! 8)

Hey Max.
Great video. I see you're from Ontario also. We rode out there last summer. Wondering which route you took to get there.

I'm in Toronto if you want to hook up for a ride.
