Nrcc Lerwick

[roselan]

Liberated 8am strong NW wind any sightings off shore this morning would be good

Thank you

[blue lad]

Seen 30 birds racing over fraserburgh around 9:40 am Not see any since .

[roselan]

Thanks for that although I don't think anyone on land in Scotland will see them only chance is if someone on one of the rigs out over the sea sights them good luck with your raceing

[blue lad]

Aye I would say they may well be out to sea. Shipping forecast for East coast all the way down to Dover is norwest force 5 -6 ver Northerly force 4- 5 .

Definitely not best racing days !

North by northwest got the wind behind them.

First one on the board in at 15.32 doing 1837ypm

It is a fact they fly down the coast. Some breaking for Louth etc. - Distance birds lol

This is depending on wind strength.

Though loved to release in any wind with east in it, they will / have released in very strong winds that have blown them over the continent.

Also, though proven, when released in July - as many residents confirm is far more stable weather wise - returns have been far better and with higher velocities.

 

The rubbish that the nearer to the 22 June for more sunshine and longer days is absolute rubbish. A they don't want, let alone need hotter weather. AND b. Better weather and 20 minutes less time is a bonus first and A nonsense THAT 20 MINUTES IS NEEDED. Indeed in July they were timing in at Noon!

 

But then that never sits well with the East Coast Committee lol

having said that it is a good day bird for sure inland and especially down London and south coast.

Arguably Lerwick is traditionally the worlds hardest race, that's for sure.
