Following the unplanned early finish of the Numbum Round Britain tour, there were some roads we hadn't travelled. We decided that we had to do them so we set off in the BGT. Numbum was broken so couldn't go and it was a bit too cold for us anyway.
With oil, water & tyre pressures checked and a full tank of fuel we headed off across the A66 and onwards up the M6, A74M and A82.
We stopped for coffee & cake at Loch Lomond.

From there it was northwards though the beautiful Glen Coe.
A largely uneventful run from there brought us to our B&B in Fort William. One interesting thing about our satnav is it asks for a house number as well as a postcode. We didn't have a house number so put in the Number 1. As we approached Fort William it said 'Arriving at destination on left'. That wasn't much good as on our left was Loch Linnhe. It would have been a damp night if we'd stopped there.
We found the B&B easily though and the view from our room window was superb.

An easy 284 miles and that was just to the start of our journey.
