- Parking is limited at Fletcher's Cove
- If you can get someone to drop you off, the best place is at the top of the ramp leading down to Fletcher's Cove
- Don't drive down the ramp to drop off passengers -- you'll get stuck trying to drive back up the ramp
- Thus we can avoid a traffic jam on the ramp
- From there, it's a short walk across a footbridge to the start line
