On the train to Oban to set off on my first big cycle/camping trip. After a few changes of plans, booking and rebooking the ferry, train and first two nights accomodation I’m on my way to do the Hebridean Way

I decided to book a bed in the Youth Hostel in Oban for the first night. this was mainly to suit train times and when I could get my bike on. I also booked a night in a backpackers hostel in Castlebay on Barra. That way I could start my tour fresh as it was to be the only night not in the tent.
