YOU HAVE TO SEND SOME AND HOPE YOU GET A RACE.BECAUSE IF YOU KEEP THEM AT HOME AND THERE IS A RACE HOW WOULD YOU FEEL.  [ASK MIKE LYCETT ]

i can understand people keeping them at home if they have targets set for them.but i have mine for racing not looking at.if they cant do 200 mile on iffy days they are no good for me.

i would agree with chris, when in doubt ,leave em out,, especialy after some of the races last week in differant parts of england,,,,but can see fifers point of veiw, the race controllers and convoyers, should be experienced to know, to send or not to send

IF U CAN'T TRUST UR CONTROLLER AND CONVOYER WHO CAN U TRUST. THEY SHOULD KNOW IF BIRDS SHOULD GO OR NOT, AND AT THE RACE POINT THEY SHOULD KNOW IOF IT'S OK TO LIB.

Rose,

I certainly wouldn't consider "throwing my birds away". I've lost good birds on what you would think would be an easy day and even lost them from a 40mile chuck. I am confident that even if they dont race on the day, they will home after several.

I think as long as they get a good start for twenty mile the weather should not stop them. I agree with the Fifer - its up to the convoyer

IS THERE ANYBODY ON THE FORUM WHO LIVES IN OR NEAR RIPON.

A lot windy mate!    Hopefully might blow itself out today & overnight.  Looking at a very erratic day tomorrow.  Sunshine, blustery showers - sharp when they're around because of the strength of the Westerly wind

We'd entered 5 in the MNFC race, but have now chosen a completely different 5 because of the conditions.

Not looking good for Central Oregon. still having thunderstorms and they are forecast over the weekend.

Sounds like its best if we all think of our birds this weekend and only send if we are sure we will get a race on sunday. Especially us in the UNC who's birds didn't get back till tuesday. Good luck to all who do get a race.

HYACINTH DO YOU THINK THE SUN WILL BE SHINING AT 8.25 AM FOR YOUR RACE. ?

It could very well be Tammy, but I'm worried about sending, as storms are forecast on and off all weekend.  It was glorious about 40 minutes ago now the sky is black and rain is threatening, we could have glorious sunshine withing another hour.

 

They say if you don't like the weather in Central Oregon, hang about for another hour, it changes so quickly.
