To Miramichi

Heading to Miramichi New Brunswick and didn’t factor in the time change so I lost an hour before I started. The weather was mausey (a Newfie term from last year) but I got off to an early start, since I couldn’t seem to trust Garmin or Google with travel times. I got to Bathurst and stopped for gas and was looking  at a map to get a better ideas how far I had gone in 3 hours. I had made three maps leaving Bathurst, so I could decide which route I would take depending on time. While looking at the map I was immediately asked if I needed help (this happened every time I was stopped and was looking at the map or Garmin). He told me if I take either route it would be a minimum of 7 more hours and he believed there was rain in that area. As soon as he left a Goldwing rider pulled up and chatting with him confirmed the rain, he just came from there. Even taking a more direct route still took 4 hours but, as soon as I checked in the rain came so it all worked out good
