I hope to update/add pics to Facebook as we go. My Facebook profile is

If anyone can think of things I must see on that rough route please let me know so I don't miss anything that I should see or do!
I will update SE with news and pics when I get back

Ian Wilson did it in his Elise a few years ago before he moved to NZ.
Kept us supplied with pics along the way and had quite a momentous journey,

You probably read it when you first posted that you were doing the journey in January.

I was up in Aveimore last week and there was a 'Thunder in the Glen' Harley gathering on, the biggest in Europe apparently. Something like 2000 Harleys - really quite a sight (and sound!).
Coast to coast Harley ride sounds like a brilliant adventure
