Day 2
Distance -244 Miles
Road time - 6hr
The Ride - From Callander to Glencoe is very scenic. The roads are wide and well maintained. The roads can be quite touristy at times however the wide roads offer plenty of visibility giving you safe opportunities to over take slower moving vehicles like tour bus's and caravans. For a morning coffee stop check out the Green Welly at Tyndrum. It is a popular stop for bikers.
Glencoe up to Inverness offers plenty of twisties but overtaking can be tricky. Be careful of tourists who often pull over without thinking to take a quick snap of Loch Ness.
Tominloul makes a good final stop for a brew before your final leg home, The Old Fire Station is recommended.
