Welsh North Road 2023

[greenlands]

Don't know if you lads might cross their path,worth knowing where they are racing from.

What's the thoughts on the route they take from likes of Perth and Fraserburgh I'd imagine a direct route would mean coming down through the Ettrick hills and down through Cumbria or they would stay on east side until south of Pennines then dog leg across? 

Anyone any knowledge? Be interesting to compare returns in different wind conditions over the years

I once saw the the welsh NR pigeons racing from Perth going over Viewpark uddingston heading straight south these pigeons must have come direct over the campsie hills . They were very high up and in big batches and really tramping I’ll never forget the sight of them .

That seems most direct route and suppose is the route they'd take when the wind is in their favour and they can get nice and high.

On a hard day when they're low taking that westerly side would be a tough gig through that those hills and valleys in border area
