Biking St. Margaret’s Way, St. Margaret’s Elbow, and St. Columba’s Way

The Pilgrimage of the Rev. R. John Brockmann, TSSF June 25-July 7 2018:
Biking St. Margaret’s Way, St. Margaret’s Elbow, and St. Columba’s Way

I arrived in Edinburgh having previously hiked pilgrimage routes in Ireland (https://www.pilgrimpath.ie/) and in Italy to Assisi (Cammino di Assisi--http://www.camminodiassisi.it/) earlier in May/June. I would go onto walk the Le Sentier Notre-Dame-Kapatakan in Quebec after leaving Scotland (http://www.sentiernotredamekapatakan.org/).
I wanted to end in Iona as the big goal of my Scottish journey so the West to East maps of Bikemap were less helpful than I had hoped. I rented a bike from Oban Cycle and had it delivered to my hotel in Edinburgh—that way I could just leave the bike in Oban when I reached there.

I can't find you pdf I'd really like to see where you stayed along St Columba's Way.
Cheers!
John
