Is it OK to take a bike in a bag/box like this on the Glasgow Airport Express bus @FirstinGlasgow ?

It's the most glamorous, the most beautiful and one of the most puzzling neolithic sites: the Stones of Calanais is the subject of programme two of my neolithic Scotland podcast Stone Me. With archaeologist Ian McHardy. stonemepodcast.com/programme…

An excellent plan here from @fbanningUK - well worth a look, any fellow non-lawyer law firm types.

It's just Second Life with better graphics. Is everyone at FB really too young to remember how bad that was?#Metaverse
Hi @SWG3glasgow , @lauramarlinghq , do you have a stage time for tonight? Is there support? Thanks.
Current location: a garden shed in a field beside the wild Atlantic eating stew.

44mph tailwind meant it felt like riding a moped for bits of it, a mile would go by and you hadn't turned a pedal. Then you turn a corner and have to get off and push. Downhill.

Should have added, this is where I am #HebrideanWay
A man took me to his house and gave me the seat post and saddle from his bike, told me to post them from Glasgow when I got there. People are amazing. It rained and I ate incredible salmon three ways.

Lowlight of Outer Hebrides tour day two was my saddle snapping off on a fast descent (seat post clamp just exploded). Literally walked up to strangers in Tarbert on Harris asking for help (no bike shop, no boat/train bail out option). 1/2
Doing a solo cycling tour of the Outer Hebrides and it's just as exciting and beautiful as I'd hoped it would be. Highlight of day one a toss up between the sudden jarring brutalist church and the light on the beach at the end of the day.

Replying to @ScotRail
It's the start of a week of touring in the Outer Hebrides, accom and the like booked. Having the bike is essential!
This is excellent work.
Ok, after many hours of hard work on MS Paint I think I've come up with an accurate 'Does This Council Area in Scotland Have an Escalator?' map. Green = has an escalator Red = Doesn't/maybe does and I'm too lazy to properly look into it
Can we bring a bike on the 926 Glasgow to Campbeltown bus @ScotCitylink? I know you're doing a trial with bike socks on other routes - can we put them in the hold if we bring our own socks? Bike boxes not an option because we want to ride them somewhere at the other end.
