Agreed. As soon as a name is linked to a route it's flooded.
A month or so ago, I saw one within the N500. Circular and tagged N250.
Yes, a lovely area, the islands. I hope to be back in a month or so, bike packing on my Raven with a tent and midge net.

If I'm not mistaken, a fair chunk of that is the NC500, joined up with the Hebridean Way and possibly some of the NCN78.

Only the section from Ullapool to Lochcarron is part of the NC500

Quite correct.
Here's a link to a trip I managed last year covering a short section of the N500.

Although only 10 months ago, it feels three times as long due to our err.... eventful times.
Best

Is that not a "fair chunk"? It certainly felt that way when I rode it ;)
I'm going to bow out of this thread now, if this is a new route I'll look out for the guide book and publicity, those might explain some of the oddities on it.

Lochcarron to Ullapool 68 miles.
I guess a 'fair chunk' is subjective.
