Guest Posted July 3, 2009 Report Posted July 3, 2009 still looking like a Monday lib, if they go sat its going to be a hard 18mph on the beak bigda what forecast are you looking at?
Guest Posted July 3, 2009 Report Posted July 3, 2009 unless france side is bad you should get a race but some showers about some heavy but s/w wind should help the birds all the best
Guest Posted July 3, 2009 Report Posted July 3, 2009 Good luck to everyone that has sent this weekend,lets hope the weather is kind a good race follows. :)
Guest stb Posted July 3, 2009 Report Posted July 3, 2009 unless france side is bad you should get a race but some showers about some heavy but s/w wind should help the birds all the bestaye the weather looks pretty good up middle and east side of country west a bit dodgy .wind in south west tonight. INFC kings cup pigeons clattering in today and fast. all the best to those who sent
EMMAJANE Posted July 3, 2009 Report Posted July 3, 2009 Agree liberation looks on for Sat am, however note this race is not from France, YPRES is in Belguim and any west in the wind from an easterly direction is not a help ! All the best to all who sent !
Guest stb Posted July 3, 2009 Report Posted July 3, 2009 Agree liberation looks on for Sat am, however note this race is not from France, YPRES is in Belguim and any west in the wind from an easterly direction is not a help ! All the best to all who sent !just think he means french side of channel. if channel clear looks good
Guest Posted July 3, 2009 Report Posted July 3, 2009 Agree liberation looks on for Sat am, however note this race is not from France, YPRES is in Belguim and any west in the wind from an easterly direction is not a help ! All the best to all who sent ! thats a good point east in the wind might be a problem to them but i dont think the birds will try crossing from belguim but with a tail wind they might be high enough to give it a go if my memory serves me right the time the snfc raced from belguim before last year the race was won on the east coast of fife in good time with an even spread all the way to saltcoats in the west

Guest Posted July 3, 2009 Report Posted July 3, 2009 frank you on the drugs again read emmajanes post again. lol i dont know what the wind is on the other side but i still dont think the birds will try and cross from belguim to uk thats over 250/300mls of water if they move down the coast to france that will make the crossing easier but if its west wind that pushes them towards holand and much more water to cross it all depends where you think they will cross thats the part we dont know
Guest stb Posted July 3, 2009 Report Posted July 3, 2009 she had said the wind looks like in the west from an easterly direction. should steady them up and head into wind ,dont think they will let it push them down into holland. West would be better then south east. if they take of in that they could end up anywhere. west is the best every time. what about andrezel birds???
Guest Posted July 3, 2009 Report Posted July 3, 2009 how does the wind come from the west in an easterly direction ? you got me their
Chris Little Posted July 3, 2009 Report Posted July 3, 2009 The perils of the eastern French and Belgian racepoints is the West winds Reims 2007 still fresh in my mind, got 2 reported in Germany and 1 in Holland :-/
Guest stb Posted July 3, 2009 Report Posted July 3, 2009 the wind is to be in the west and the racepoint layes to the east of france so birds will have to head into wind. what bout andrezel
Guest Posted July 3, 2009 Report Posted July 3, 2009 The perils of the eastern French and Belgian racepoints is the West winds Reims 2007 still fresh in my mind, got 2 reported in Germany and 1 in Holland :-/ the wind is only light s/w so i dont think it will bother them too much
Guest Posted July 3, 2009 Report Posted July 3, 2009 androzel will be ok i think no probs there 587mls to me they need a bit of help
Guest stb Posted July 3, 2009 Report Posted July 3, 2009 androzel will be ok i think no probs there 587mls to me they need a bit of helpnot a big difference in distance than reims. were bouts does androzel laye.
Chris Little Posted July 3, 2009 Report Posted July 3, 2009 It is in the south eastern fringes of Paris
Guest Posted July 3, 2009 Report Posted July 3, 2009 not a big difference in distance than reims. were bouts does androzel laye. not got a scooby
JADE Posted July 3, 2009 Report Posted July 3, 2009 thats a good point east in the wind might be a problem to them but i dont think the birds will try crossing from belguim but with a tail wind they might be high enough to give it a go if my memory serves me right the time the snfc raced from belguim before last year the race was won on the east coast of fife in good time with an even spread all the way to saltcoats in the west if you mean Liege in 2001 it was won by Les McKay and the general opinion is the bird came on a straight line across the North Sea. By the way last time I was there Carnoustie was in Angus. Don`t remember it ever being on the East coast of Fife
