What would be your dream commute ?

Some ground rules:
- Between named, inhabited, places.
- Less than 2 hours.
- It can be done on a bicycle. (Road bike, MTB, CX, BMX, ...),
so it doesn't have to be on road.
Maybe there should be more, or different rules.

I might go for either:
- Leverburgh to Tarbert, on the golden road.
Or:
- Lochinver to Achiltibuie (either direction). Maybe Stoer to Achiltibuie.

    Along some of coastal roads in New Zealand, probably heading north from Barrytown past and through Paparoa National Park.

    That is a nice thought for a sunday morning. Thanks!

    I used to have it. 14 miles which had country lanes, bridleway, suburban, shared path (with friendly schoolkids!), urban, and quiet shared path

    Had the lot all packed into one commute. I really miss that ride.
    Chunky Cyclists need your love too! :-)

    Wind behind. Both ways.

    But seriously, somewhere up in the Lake District would be nice, or even in the South of France on quiet roads through Vineyards.

    Coastal road with a tail wind on a tandem with a scantily clad Hedi Klum as the pilot.
