All of this was ruled by Vikings, and much of it was part of Norway for a long time. Someone pointed out that where the Norse ruled, Celtic culture was preserved; where the English got their hands on things it was suppressed. I've long had a yen to see those lands.
Fly to Scotland, rent a bike. Probably be best to bring your rain gear!
There was a thread on Adventure rider sometime back about a guy in the B. Isles who would look for a bike for people who wanted to take longer trips, where a rental was not economical- tell him roughly what you want, and he would get all the details taken care of.
