When you leave the Linlithgow Rugby Club you will be heading east to the Queensferry crossing, the latest of the Forth Bridges. The new bridge is an amazing structure and if the weather conditions are right the suspension cables really sparkle in the sun.
As you cross the bridge look to your right and you will see the other two bridges, the original Forth Rail Bridge, an engineering marvel considering it was built such a long time ago, and the 60’s Forth Road Bridge which allowed motor vehicle crossing of the Forth for the first time, a much better alternative than the ferry.
Now travelling north and then East past Loch Leven and towards the Fife Coast and the East Neuk of Fife as it is reffered to. When you arrive in Anstruther, take a right down to the harbour where you will find a few fish and chip shops which serve the freshest fish you will find anywhere – straight off the fishing boats in the harbour and into the fryer. http://www.anstrutherfishbar.co.uk/ Don’t fill yourself here though as there are other delights to experience on the remainder of the route.
