Scottish NC250

The nc250 needs no introduction, we will be starting from Inverness travelling to Applecross, then up to Ullapool from there to Lochinver and Scourie before hitting the east coast around Golspie back down to Inverness .

Bike Safety

We painstakingly handpick our accommodation to make sure they feature either a garage/locked car park or at least a nice tuck away out of sight. We always take the necessary precautions to ensure that our guests bikes are safe over night but that being said, it is ultimately your responsibility to ensure your bike is locked, alarmed and even possibly covered if you wish.

Accommodation

Our Scottish tours will feature highly rated Airbnb’s or B&Bs. You will be provided with breakfast each morning, whether that is included in the stay or we take you to a cafe en route.

This tour also features farewell meal on the last night paid for by us and a Ride Europe Tours T shirt.

Average tour mileage: Around 350 miles

Average daily mileage: 100 miles

*Subject to daily change.

We operate a ‘2nd man drop off’ system. If you’re a seasoned rider, then you’ll know

this system well. We use it as it keeps the group moving and there’s no waiting

around for riders to catch the group up. When riding in larger groups on main roads

we like to have everyone in a more staggered formation so you’re not flicking stones

directly at the person behind you bike or their visor.

On our riding days, we can either split the group down into a faster and slower group

or we can all go out together. We will still operate the same ‘2nd man drop off system’

however, on the longer stretches of roads we will allow for riders to ‘stretch their legs’

if they so wish to. No-one overtakes the lead rider unless signaled to.

Everyone will be added to a Whats-app group so if for and reason you get split up

from the group you can let us know you are safe. You will all have the route given to

you each day and we will give you all GPX files for the riding days if you have a GPX supporting device.

You do not need to stay in the group to enjoy your riding holiday, if you prefer to go off on your own and meet up at the accommodation each night, that is absolutely fine by us…. its your holiday after all.
