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.
