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.
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?

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.
.“Enthusiasm is excitement with inspiration, motivation, and a pinch of creativity.”
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.
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

I am also as happy as Harry with the performance of the Basic Syndicate bird in the RPRA yearling one loft race. Great boost in Franks faith in the bird.
A fuxxking disgrace. Can't do it on your own, If it is what I think. They must be drummed out accordingly. To make it worse, Skem was a place a lot of the Liverpool SDU guys moved to.
well quite possible my worst experience of pigeon racing so far. Timed one on the night got two more first light this morning and still four missing .On the plus side it was my pooler that come first just a pity its to far behind to get anything . Oh well heres looking at Cholet .
