Fort William to Oban
After catching the sleeper train from London we're cycling south to the port town of Oban to catch the ferry to Lochboisdale (the ferry to Castlebay has no bike spaces for a few days).

Fort William
A ferry and then a sleeper train, with a short wander around London in the sunshine between train connections. We've arrived in sunny Scotland ready to get back on the bikes for a couple of weeks.
Crossing the Loch
After stocking up with a few groceries in Fort William we decided to take the little ferry across the Loch as the road on the other side looked like a nice place to start our ride.
Loch Linnhe and Views of Ben Nevis
2nd Ferry of the Day
Free for cyclists! From Ardgour to Corran
End of Day 1
We've been spoilt today - amazing weather, stunning scenery, and lovely cycle tracks. Really glad we took the west shore along the first section of Loch Linnhe - the quiet roads and wildlife more than made up for the slightly longer route.
Argyll Pottery
Lucy is unable to cycle past a pottery sign without a quick pitstop!
Connel Bridge and Falls of Lora
McCaig Tower
Oban
A few more hills today, and sunnier than we were prepared for! We're in the beautiful port town of Oban this evening, ready to catch the ferry out to Western Isles tomorrow morning.
