Depends which way. I absolute detest that 9 mile stretch up from Tarbet to Inverarnan. Some of our major routes are just shocking. Then there is the traffic on sunny weekends. If I’m heading south from Glencoe I’ll often dive down Glen Orchy, pop over to Inveraray (maybe stop fae fish and chips at the excellent Mr Pia’s), then head for the Dunoon ferry. It’s nice relaxed driving/riding rather fighting with all the traffic. I buy books of 10 tickets at a time for the ferry which works out at half the usual fare.
Oh watch oot fae the Dunoon police, they love patrolling the A83 in their unmarked cars and targetting bikers in order to hit their KPI's.
Lots of talk on the press of the police clamping down on the NC500 - but I've not seen much activity when I've been up there.
