sorry to offend residents but Ft Billy is a shizz hole, its only good for petrol and Neptune's Staircase.

the general area of Sky is by far the best place to be as there is loads to see.

As you want to do the Ben thats why I said about the YH at the foot of the path,at least you can leave your bike there round the back which is safe.The chippie down the wee alley/slope in Ft W does good fish'n'chips--man size portions

Ben Nevis is a boring slog on the usual path, other than saying you got the peak, I wouldn't bother.

Cullin ridge is awesome as is Glencoe and the A87 and Applecross Pass. I went in the Autumn and really enjoyed the bit of Scotland we saw.
We stayed at a campsite called "Pine trees" at Tyndrum which was very good, they had some mini lodges which were good value, very friendly, I could recommend that if you need to stay in the area.
