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!

Is that the one on the airfield? I think I saw that advertised a fair bit.

Caithness literally goes past my house. Gonna take my house keys in case I need a wee. 😆

Any Scottish fetchies driving through Golspie on Saturday morning to do Thurso parkrun? I would appreciate if I could car share.

I had a look on Google Maps, and travel time for the Cathness Half would be more than some foreign races I've done eg in Berlin and Torremolinos. (And potentially others except I took a roundabout route.)

Exactly.

It's a luxury *destination* race in the Costa Del Caithness.

I think I remember the bit you are on about. Hard to work them out as we did measure finish to start - so rode course in reverse.
