In the middle of looking into this. Who has done it, what is the best start/finish and what kind of miles/time does it cover. I am looking for something I can do in c. 4 days between the 27th and 30th Aug this year. Reasonably fit and would like to aim for about 40-miles a day.
Planning on self guiding and with a few friends. Hoping to stay in Hostels and carry all our gear with us in backpacks/panniers.
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
bear in mind that by august you will be in dear stalking season so some routes may not be advisable, no problem with land rover tracks e.t.c but stalkers tracks are a diffrent matter of course. Acropolises if I'm teaching my grandmother to suck eggs here.

How far do you want to ride? The shortest crossing is really Ullapool to Bonar Bridge - 40 miles of doubletrack.
TheBrick - Wasnt something I was aware of thanks.
TJ - I am looking to cover about 200 miles over the 4 days give or take. Dont really want to be going much over that. Looked at Fort William to Montrose which is about 235miles, which is a little more than I wanted but it's do-able.
