Day 3: Putter around Fundy

11/27/2014

A mere 410 miles and we arrive at Adairs, with 20 mins spare to still get dinner before the lodge closed for the night. Meanwhile, the "hot dog' bet has only double twice again.



The fueling house..How cute!


The lodge caters to snow mobiling, but I am hoping this tidbit of info will be useless for us


We find out that we are only 20 miles away from the Atlantic International Balloon Fiesta. So, we take a quick jump over to see what's going on.

The balloons only launch early morning/evening, when the air thermoclines are inverting. As such, our late morning arrival puts us looking at an empty field. None the less, this team of misfits can always find something to entertain ourselves.

The town is also known for the murals on the buildings












And as if we aren't addicted to covered bridges, we find two more for this season too!




Back at camp, BMW Canada has shown up. And shown up in style they have. A fleet of F800s which will be doing demo rides all afternoon. Yes, that is right demo rides in the bikes elements. I really think this would be a great idea for them to do in the states!

This rig is pretty much on the road all riding season (May-Sept).


It can hold upto 44 bikes. Today, only 22 F800GS's




Bringing sexy back




After the bikes get a few hundred KMs on the clock, they are rotated out of the demo fleet. Pretty much your chance to drop a perfectly good bike with no damage liability!
