Organized by the BATANS club, the tour featured a variety of British classic sports cars including Sunbeam Alpine, Austin-Healey and Curry Alder’s Jaguar E-type. Often with steep hills on one side and sea the other, the well-surfaced Quebec roads were a joy to enjoy – especially the many corkscrew turns that added real meaning to sporty driving!
The one big standout feature of the trip was the two-day visit to Percé, viewing Percé Rock close-up by boat, and a voyage around nearby Bonaventure Island, home to tens of thousands of gannet seabirds. Quite a sight!
The tour, which took many weeks of planning, was a great and popular success. One wonders if FABAC could at least organize a multi-day tour, say over a weekend to Nova Scotia. Any volunteers?

Bravo, Shirley Ann and John! I hope photographs are soon on their way.
Thanks for the report and photos. I'm sure you had a great trip. We did a tour of the Gaspé in September, 2013 and thoroughly enjoyed it as well.
