OBAN for Lunch
We're off to Oban again for a spot of lunch at their fabulous outside seafood place.
It's certainly not the cheapest seafood you will buy, but Scallops & Chips is definitely the way to go in my opinion.
Fill your tanks before kicking off at 8:30 from McDs @ Newbridge
We'll set off towards Crieff where we'll stop for a breakfast roll at The Steading @ ~50m - 09:30
We'll head west past Loch Earn and Crianlarich, and stop at Tyndrum for fuel for those with 100m fuel tanks @ ~90m - 11:00
Then turn left and on towards Oban, where we'll stop for Lunch @ ~125m - 12:00 - 13:15
We'll fuel before leaving Oban, because there's not much until Arrochar 13:15-13:30
After Lunch, we'll head south to Loch Gilphead and back up to Inverary for an ice cream stop and a view @ ~185m - 14:45 - 15:15
And on to Balloch for a last stop for coffee @ ~ 225m - @16:15 - 16:45
From Balloch, we'll head back to Stirling and join the M9 back to Edinburgh. @285m - 18:00ish
This is about 285 miles and 7 hours of riding
We'll be using the drop off marker system, so nobody gets lost
It's not a race, and is suitable for every member or associate
