Looks like a great route!
When I was living in Glasgow for 6 months I used to ride Glasgow to Fort William pretty much weekly. Riding through the Trossachs is amazing no matter what route you take. It's normally pretty quiet too, even on the "busier" roads like the A82.
On the third day, once you cross the bridge over to Queensferry there is actually a pretty decent bike path/route all the way into Edinburgh. It's segregated from the main roads for the most part but some bit's of it turny turny through the suburbs.

Okay - so what would people say on this three days. Camping the first two nights, in Edinburgh the third. Pretty short distances, but is it okay riding? We'll be on touring bikes.

The first day out of Glasgow isn't exactly following the advice given, so needs to be ironed out, but there is a distillery on the way... So... Obvs going there.
