............do this..........

Thats a good start but consider http://www.argyllferries.co.uk/Downloads/gourock-dunoon.pdf on the way up & add as below. Give it a good few days & take your time; accomodation is never an issue - you'll find it. If it does not rain (I have covered this ground in dry weather) there is no better biking territory. You may of course have a wee bit of rain. Skip John O Groats.

I agree with Gerry's suggestion above , they are all cracking roads

That route is 1400 kilometers in round figures - I have not done it as a consolidated single route but have covered the ground in sucessive trips (including Mull & the Hebrides). It is what I'd recommend in a single trip & would expect it to take a week from home to home in Kerry - 6 days from Longford?
