What these routes from Edinburgh cover

For an electric license-free car, range is the question. Counting about a hundred kilometres per charge, 5 of these 10 routes are done in one go, and 5 need a charge on the way or an overnight stop. A petrol one covers the lot with no constraint, on a tank of around 20 litres.
These distances are not straight-line measurements: they come from TacTac's route calculation, which leaves out the motorways and expressways banned for light quadricycles and works at a 45 km/h top speed. A Edinburgh → Stirling therefore looks longer than in an ordinary car, but it matches the road you can actually drive.
