I work on a tugboat in NYC, my schedule is two weeks on the boat two weeks off. I try to spend as much of my time off the boat riding my motorcycles. I currently have a 2010 Royal Enfield, 2010 Triumph Tiger and a 2009 Russian Ural. I post pictures and ride reports from my travels all over North America. Enjoy, Noah Blanchard

Rough Road Ahead!
That is an understatement, loose gravel over hard gravel with potholes. It didn't matter if you went 10mph or 80, this was one tough section of road. The scenery is breathtaking, iv slowed down to around 20-40 mph the BMW boys headed off at 80 mph. We meet up every 100km or so, they may be in a rush, but I'm enjoying the trip and view.
Red Bay Labrador
We stopes for lunch in this small fishing town, after this it's no fuel for 150 km and all dirt until Goose Bay 1000km away. We met up with Charley in Sydney, NS he bumped into us here and there but stuck with us when we started the Trans Labrador Highway.
Disembarking the ferry
The ride out of Blanc-Seblon was very scenic, a coastal twisty road though Quebec into Labrador. There are small fishing towns every 10-20 km, we fuel up at the first pump and head towards Red Bay, 100 km away and the start of the gravel highway.
