Does anyone have a GPS route of the full Inverses 1200 route (not broken down) complete with all the controls that they want to share? Happy to not hold the plotter accountable for any errors! 
Something that would avoid the horrid reads that everyone is talking about would be preferable!

The route I've offered on RwGPS
https://ridewithgps.com/routes/28872782?beta=false allows you to export a gpx or tcx file. But since the route back from Paisley is the exact reverse (?Inverses
of the route out I have not plotted it ('cos it makes it difficult to amend the outward route). You'll probably find the Paisley-Lytham leg separately plotted by another, maybe on the FW 1000 thread.
What do you mean by "complete with all the controls"? On The route I've offered each control has an excursion on the route (eg Carnforth, Gretna, Abington, Paisley, Inveraray, Dunbeg(Oban) and Inverness). Other PoP locations are acceptable.
Please specify which "horrid reads" you think it's worth avoiding.
The Times?
The Grauniad? Imo the worst road is Corran to Ft William (10 miles) both ways, and that is (in practice) unavoidable. There's lots of cyclepath from Dunbeg to Corran. some of which is good to ride on, but a randonneur will lose time. I sometimes think that the places a cyclepath rejoins the main road are points of added risk. On the WH1000 last year I deliberately tried to use as much of that cyclepath as possible, both ways en route to the Corran ferry, but I had plenty of time and it was a glorious day.
I've just amended the route to reflect the routesheet round East Kilbride rather than the dual carriageways.
I have routed south of Kendal on the route/roads I think best, down to Carnforth, avoiding the main road. There are several options to avoid the A6 from Penrith to Carlisle. An atlas is your friend.
But this ride is a long way and the miles have to be ridden. Sometimes quieter roads are both further, have more scenery and might actually be no safer that wide A roads with good sight lines. YMMV. Recommend you spoend some time with a paper road atlas.
'Out of hours' PoP in Crianlarich may be difficult (only applies to the fuller value rider). On the way south the optimum route from FW to Paisley is via Crianlarich so really that control is really a 'have something to eat and drink' control (and to avoid a 'too long between controls Audax UK' leg), rather than one for route definition. I'm sure Andy will offer guidance.
