As some of you may know I’ve been thinking for a while of completing a lengthy trip in my ZS. I love Scotland so i’ve been looking at some of the NC500 combined with the Lake district - all starting from Birmingham!
I started my first draft of the trip and thought that I’d share my early thoughts. It does seem a bit daunting I must admit! I have quite a lot of work to do to fill in gaps and back up plans - or I could just go for it!
what do you think?
NC 500/Lakes trip
1/Depart Birmingham to Kendal (150miles) - overnight stop - not sure about overnight or rapid chargers in/around Kendal or for any overnight stops yet…
Also need Chargers Plan B to be added for the whole trip….
2/Depart Kendal (hopefully fully charged) to Perth (190miles) - overnight stop. Again not sure overnight charging/rapids in Perth
3/Depart Perth to Dornoch (153miles). Overnight stop.
4/Depart Dornoch to Wick (63miles). Overnight stop.
4/Depart Wick to Tongue (68miles). Overnight stop.
5/depart Tongue to Lochinver (81miles). Overnight stop.
6/Depart Lochinver to Ullapool (36miles). Overnight stop.
7/Depart Ullapool to Kinlochewe (58miles). Overnight stop.
8/Depart Kinlochewe to Inverness (50miles). Overnight stop.
9/Depart Inverness to oban (109miles). Overnight stop.
10/Depart Oban to Windermere (241miles). Overnight stop.
11/Depart Windermere for Birmingham (156miles).
1352miles total. 16 charges. 8hrs 4min charge time. 373.7kwh used at 265wh/mile
