forth road bridge closed until next year

Unread post by kenny anthony »

anyone got any thoughts/ suggestions on getting to east districts as i had plans early sat. morning and with possible traffic jams how long will it take to get there. maybe we should car share more for this one and how early will we now have to leave. any trains go there from edinburgh.

Livingston North Station is 10 mins walk to the course and there are 3 trains an hour from Edinburgh on Saturdays.

But...yes Kenny car sharing would be good idea too.

I have the tent so need to get there early for the first race at 11 am. I would expect to leave here at 7am/7.30 ish.....if anyone wants to accompany me ?

By car from Cupar area you would need to go via Kinross, Crook of Devon (twinned with the thief of Baghdad) and then the Clackmannanshire Bridge. Then M76.....M9......M8 usual route.
Travelling from Glenrothes/Kircaldy area....Dunfermline....Kincardine Bridge then M76 M9 etc.

I am planning on driving down with Calum Harvie and Dan Clarke leaving from Cupar. We could possibly pick you or meet you en route Kenny? Might also have room for one other person if you dont mind getting up close and personal with two sweaty runners in the back seat....
