Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scotland; What a country! Being from the North of Ireland, there is fairly easy access to the country via the ferry service which departs from Belfast several times a day and with a bicycle; arrive, follow their instructions, load the bicycle and take a seat. Arrive, and well, the road network is fairly simple, once out of the terminal there are two choices; right or left, north or south. Part One of this jaunt I chose the left and ended up in Wick, North-East of the country... Could have gone further but was a Friday; heavy traffic on the single carriageway. Part Two, I took a right and followed the Scottish border to the capital; Edinburgh via Dumfries and small villages until destination reached. Part Three, Edinburgh to Aberdeen – where I left the bicycle in for a service and the MicroSD card fragmented hence minimal photographs. Part Four, I returned to Aberdeen and made my way back to Wick. Stunning landscapes throughout. Would recommend the West coast of Scotland as a cycle. Right from the port, stunning views all over. Some inclines scattered throughout but once you move over them, fairly powerful coasting from there. This is Ireland in Scotland.
