    Hello from the Isle of Lewis.

    On the island we have from the north to south around +/- 95 miles and we have a circular route in the middle which is 40 miles. Great place for a bike as not many police up here. No speed cameras yet!

    Hello from the Isle of Lewis.

    Hi, my nearest dealer is calterdon BMW located in Inverness. From where i stay it's a 2hr 40min on a ferry to ullapool and then 50min ride on a cracking twisty road to Inverness. It's not as bad as it sounds.. Not much Plod up north so can enjoy the ride without worrying..
