1st Annual Maritime Mustang Season Kick Off cruise May 5 th Oxford NS

Here's a return option for PEI cars...possibly some NB cars...taking the Sunrise Trail back to Port Elgin.

Thanks to Gerry & Martin for scouting this route out & giving it the thumbs up!

Tim Hortons
4484 Upper Main St, Oxford, NS B0M 1P0

Follow Kolbec Rd/NS-301 N and Sunrise Trail/Tyndal Rd/NS-366 W to Baie Verte Rd
41 min (51.5 km)

Drive to Shemogue Rd/NB-970 N in Port Elgin
10 min (10.9 km)
Port Elgin
New Brunswick

52 min (62.4 km)

Can stop in Port Elgin for canned beer, canned pop & fireworks just like the old days!!
 
I do the Port Elgin Baie Verte Sunrise Trail to Amherst Cruise a couple of times each summer. A Great Route and as a bonus, a 24 is cheaper in NB now compared to NS and the Island.
 
I don't know if this will affect anyone for the run

OK Great Aaron! Yes as stated above we are aiming for channel 10 for radios. Sounds good. My contact pilot will be on text patrol. Lol
 
Forecast looking like showers to clear out by daybreak. Might even be a top down cruise at some point tomorrow!
 
Did everything this week to the car. Just stopped raining here on Moncton. Roads are wet but looks to be clearing up. We will get our stangs a little dirty but it should be a good day just the same. See everybody soon. Drive safe!
