Check the Port Appin Ferry times. We went out and back, but there are options for a linear tour from Oban to Lismore and Lismore to Port Appin as part of a wider trip.

There are a few ferries from Oban to Lismore, but the Port Appin one is more frequent. It is a passenger ferry and happy to carefully take your bikes abord. Bikes are also available for hre on Lismore (check locally). Lismore offers fine road cycling and wildlife with great views over Loch Linnie to mainland and to the Ardnamurchan / Morvern peninsulas where we were headed next day.
