Chris Little Posted July 1, 2007 Report Posted July 1, 2007 Birds liberated at 7.30am with the MNFC Good luck everyone
me Posted July 1, 2007 Report Posted July 1, 2007 Yes indeed all the best to the brave fanciers and birds taking part in this race with the way weather looks it might be another toughy but hopefully they will be able to pick their way through the rain and the south wind should help as will the MNFC birds. Maybe something to consider there for your Gold Medal race next year. All the best lets hope the birds make it home safe and sound.
GREENGRASS Posted July 1, 2007 Report Posted July 1, 2007 did you send any chris.................best of luck to all taking part.
