Great pics Andy recognise the bridge - route from Fort William to Oban is one of my next planned weekends - maybe across to Tobemory in to the bargain !

Tobermory is on my radar for a trip on the Bike,
I reckon that I can leave Dundee head to Oban ,catch the ferry about 10am head to Tobermory for lunch and be back home about 5:30 / 6ish and the missus will just think I've been at work as normal
Gonna try it when it's warmer

Another great route to Tobermory is via the Corran ferry and the Mull ferry from Lochaline. Then take the ferry from Tobermory to Kilchoan and back by Corran again. Less traffic and a great route

On a nice summer day I would go Dundee, Invergarry, Skye, Mallaig, Kilchoan,  Tobermory, Oban, Tyndrum, Crieff and back home 400 miles of pure bliss with the occasional traffic.


For a challenging summer try the

Round Britain Rally.....

I do most of that route pretty well every year as a gentle meander and forum says not allowed to post GPX or GDB files Error You aren't permitted to upload this kind of file
