Review of Slow Ways route Newrat one (Newbridge to Ratho)....

There's pavement all the way, so it's safe despite being a busy road. Four stars because it's really the only way to go....

Near the start I would mention that Baird Road between Newbridge and Ratho has a pavement that is quite narrow and uneven in places which might mean it's not suitable for wheels. It's also not possible to get directly from the Cowgate to George IV Bridge so using Victoria Street would be the simplest amendment to the route as you get close to the end....
