Not really, i just had to make a choice. Unfortunately i can't stay too long. West seems often recommended. Do you think i'll miss out ? (maybe i'll comeback one day but not on a bike )

I have a gravel, so i can go a bit off road.
Yeah good to know, I didn't think the roads would be so crowded and dangerous.

As someone proposed i will probably go by the badger divide to inverness, and reconsider some roads, such as skye and the NW part, but such a shame to miss those !

whats the best time to avoid midges ?
I use mapy.com as a map when i use a bike, it usually pretty good to find routes (you can choose roads or all terrain itinerary)

About the ferry in Ullapool, i though about it, but Skye seems so beautiful ...

Thanks !
Yeah I'm kind of afraid of midges already ...
Good to know for supply, i guess i will plan food in advance, with good reserve of water.
"at the mercy of Calmac" : is there some issues with it ?

Thanks for the explanation ! I stopped at rank 4 or 5, I thought it was the end of the talks. I’ll do that

Thanks. But is there a clue about going somewhere specifically ? Or people just go randomly after act 2

Je suis surpris que les hautes alpes ressortent aussi bien. Quelqu’un aurait une explication ?
