Cycling the Scottish Highlands...with people from Netherlands/Belfast. Any tips?

Many thanks guys - that's great. The OP should be reassured, too  .

Thanks

So...summary short: If my parents phone ahead they really shouldn't get stranded?

As my dad found out you have to phone ahead, but I think he's still nervous they may be left on the platform. So he's considering leaving a day earlier and pedalling down.

I doubt very much that they would not find space even if they didn't book .

In June you won't have hit the main holiday season yet - with space for 6 bikes on the train and starting from the beginning of the run at Newcastle, it is very unlikely that there would be a problem.
