Hi Rose !!!!!!!!!!!!   A bit of a cock up here   . I will not hold my breath here now, to see when they finally get the birds up etc.
Enjoy.

Well as they say no news is good news so perhaps there is half a chance they may get them up today.

See the MNFC have gone but they got lot less of an area to look at covering the birds and where they are heading  Not sure what the weather in the channel looks good visibility in places and not very good in others

It's Tuesday 27th May, the birds at Fougeres have been liberated at 8.40 hrs in a light South East wind with sunshine on the baskets. The birds cleared immediately. We wish you the best of luck in the race.

Good luck to all flyers and their birds,hope its a good one.

good luck

Not sure if it's me being thick, but the NFC website doesn't seem to have 2008 on the results screen ? I like to keep logged on and see the results get updated. Do I need an update or something?

No got nothing for 2008 perhaps they forgot  

Nothing beats the first National channel race so best of luck to all have sent.

The internet result service that the NFC have is fantastic, it creates great excitement as the pigeons are reported as they move up the country.

Perhaps more British organisations could follow suit with this great idea.

best of luck to all that sent hope you have a good race

I agree the result service is fantastic, but how do I see the 2008 result !!

You cant at the moment because its not on there

anyone have a rough guess on speeds they think the pigeons will get upto? i am saying about 45mph arround my way section L i'm just north of crewe.so about 7 hours to me

does anyone know if this will be on by today?? Does anyone involved with the running of the NFC site come onto these boards? As someone said its nice to see the birds making their way up the country and seeing the different velo's.

Good luck to all those involved!

Thanks

Think its working now  Thiought they could been faster than that on the coast Ronnie but not so sure now after being down there winds bit variable but mainly east and quite ight warm and muggy

you was right rose they have clocked in in dorchester and weymouth doing 1500 ypm
good luck everyone

looks like the verifications lines are having technical difficulties.

Either that or there arent many birds around
