I'm pretty much happy spending any free time I have exploring this wee country.
I'll probably never get round it all, and there's places I'll never tire of going back to.
They are a bit laid back on the ferry, but it's generally calm this time of year. But yeah if you want your bike strapped down properly you'll have to ask and persuade em. But really unless the weather is real bad your bike will be fine.
Yes it gets windy, but then again it's often much dryer than the mainland. They are suffering a drought this year.
Stornoway? Unless there's a music festival on or something, well Harris and Lewis are outstandingly beautiful and these are the biggest islands in Scotland, there's lots to see.
I've always founds folks very friendly. But it is a different world, and a different culture. And Sunday is taken very seriously. But yeah I've spent weeks out there over the years. And I'll be back some time.
I'd take time off on Skye or Ullapool rather than Inverness.
