Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

I wonder if that's the same restriction as last year? It was residents only between the river and the school. I had a great row with a woman on FB who had been given a ticket and though it was unfair because she wasn't blocking anything and it was a Sunday so there wasn't any traffic...

Here's the official document. Measures do not seem as draconian as they are made out to be. You might have a twenty minute walk to the finish if you go by car to spectate say, but hey, its going to be a warm and sunny day ;-)

It also says that two way traffic Portie-Musselburgh will be maintained throughout so that should allow service buses to function.

When I last ran it I walked to porty to get picked up, loosened my muscles nicely and I bought an icey from the garage :-)
