You are so lucky up there when the sun shines,stunning scenery,went diving off Mull 1990 ish,late May for aweek and it was fantastic,weather,diving,eveything.
Going to have to have a run up that way on the bike sometime ,just hope the weathers as kind as last time i was up there. :) :)
Cheers

Yes, been to Isle of Mull, Tobermory (Balamory in kids programme)...not that i watch it :oops:
We sometimes get an island hopscotch ticket (calmac)for the ferries,can use 2 or 3 ferries in a day ,very reasonable prices dependin on route.
Another option is the Western ferries from Gourock to Dunoon,across to the cowal peninsula,some great empty roads. Half price tickets in shop near ferry terminal,approx £4 for bike inc rider.
