Route info

Off the back of the summer solstice, we're taking advantage of near maximum daylight. Starting in Milngavie, near Glasgow, sunrise will be at 04:32. Finishing in Fort William, in the Scottish Highlands, sunset will be at 22:18. This means you'll have almost 18 hours of complete daylight to conquer this ultra-cycling route. We're hoping this provides plenty of time to to take in the breathtaking scenery, shed a tear or two, and maybe even arrive in time to watch the sunset over a pint or three.For those that need a little longer, you'll benefit from dusk light conditions into the night, but of course, we'd still recommend a set of lights to be safe.All going well, the weather gods will throw us a bone and you'll get to experience Scotland in all its glory, without the midges, because those little buggers really can ruin a good ride🤞.We'll be continuously updating this page with relevant logistical information related to getting yourself to the start line and getting away from the finish, so check back here regularly for updates.
