We took the ferry from Newfoundland to Labrador Thursday, and we spent Thursday night in a hotel in Forteau, NL that was about two miles from the Ferry.  Friday, we rode to Port Hope Simpson and spent Friday night at the Alexis Hotel.  Saturday, we rode to Happy Valley—Goose Bay.

Most of the road we were on Friday and Saturday is unpaved.  Friday, 90 miles of the road was unpaved, and Saturday 202 miles of the road was unpaved.  For an unpaved road, it was in generally good shape.  However, there were several miles where it was full of potholes and several miles were the gravel was so deep, the motorcycle seemed to go where it wanted to.  It rained Saturday, which made the road very slick in places.  So far, my bike is the only Goldwing I have seen since being on the Trans-Labrador Highway. There are a lot of motorcycles on the Highway, but all the others I have seen are dual sports.

We are staying in Happy Valley—Goose Bay until tomorrow and we are heading on to Churchill Falls and Labrador City.  We still have about 100 miles of unpaved road in Quebec.
