Book yourself a Bargain Berth on the Caledonian Sleeper from London, and you can get to or from Inverness for only £19. And Inverness station seems positive about cycling: the first sign you see as you get your bike off the train (right) informs you of the possibilities. (Anyone know of other stations with similar signs?)

(Whoever runs the bike parking at Inverness should check out David Hembrow's posts on cycle parking, and maybe hop across to the Neths for a factfinding tour. And they can get down to London and Eurostar for only £19...)
Those National Cycle interchange signs are quite common in Scottish stations - there's one in Dumfries, for example.

ReplyDeleteAye but try finding room on a train for your bike (even if you're able to book a space in advance, which isn't always possible, e.g. if you board at an unmanned station) and suddenly the bike friendly veneer gets pretty thin...
