Planning a NC500 trip in the Zed - any advice on places to visit / places to stay?

[pvr]

Bristol to Inverness will leave you needing a rest day that's got to be 11 or 12 hrs in the seat
If you haven't already covered the lower parts of Scotland on a roadtrip then might be worth considering them

Never had a rest day when I went up there, chance would be a fine thing. 620 miles in just over 10 hours. PVR doesn't like to stop much either.

We stopped to say hello to mr wilks, plenty of rest doing that

Think Bing had the same pleasure of following me through the whole of France in one go
