BIKE:

Cyclists must obey the Highway Code at all times and the directions of race marshals.

All the roads are two-lane single carriageways with generally good surfaces. Generally, the course follows a shallow uphill gradient and is non-technical. The route through Gullane village is downhill. In the interests of public and competitors safety and the future of the race, competitors must be particularly careful and vigilant in the built-up area.

Competitors must be prepared to stop if required. Marshals will be in position at all key junctions. Obey their instructions. Police motor cycle patrols may be deployed. Obey the Highway Code.

DRAFTING WILL NOT BE TOLERATED. Draft busting motor cyclists will be in action, working in conjunction with marshals who will be noting numbers. triathlonScotland Penalties for first offence: Sprint - 6 minutes added to your overall time; Standard - 12 minutes added to your overall time. Any further breaches of the drafting rule will result in disqualification
