Had a nice potter around Scotland last week (not with EuroKClub, sorry).
It was my first time there on a motorbike, and the first time I've been north of Fort William.
We rode the west half of the NC500 (throwing in Appletree for good measure), and then came down the middle to Loch Ness, and back down through the Cheviots in the east, and home.
Thoroughly recommended.
As are waterproofs and midge repellent.

Top left corner - Durness. Petrol for 9 bikes from a single automated pump takes about 25 minutes. We had a small jam building up by the last bike:
Glenshee Ski Centre, Cairngorms - proper soggy, but a fabulous road even in the wet:
