midnight_son Posted July 11, 2010 Report Posted July 11, 2010 According to this link Knareborough is 144 miles from me http://www.freemaptools.com/how-far-is-it-between.htm Even if they only manage 38mph for that last bit that still has them up here before 10pm assuming there is a bird from this area up with the leaders down there.
Delboy Posted July 11, 2010 Report Posted July 11, 2010 I reckon the Knaresborough doo is doing approx 1185 ypm, to equal that in Elphinstone you would need to be in at 9.39 pm. As I said, this is probably not the first pigeon so fingers crossed Jamie
midnight_son Posted July 11, 2010 Report Posted July 11, 2010 I agree, would be interesting know the times from Bridlington and Scarborough area, they could be half an hour better off over there. 2139 would be a cracker up here, i'd be delighted with anything tonight.
DJH Posted July 11, 2010 Report Posted July 11, 2010 Any idea as to how the GYA are doing in their race from Bourges?? I would have hoped by now we would have heard more than just the 2 birds, there must be more birds in Yorkshire at this time. If this is a struggle for the Yorkshire lads then we are going to have a long wait up here

andy Posted July 12, 2010 Report Posted July 12, 2010 If the Yorkshire lads haven't timed in plenty by now, then I would suggest the convoy didn't get into the UK yesterday.
Delboy Posted July 12, 2010 Report Posted July 12, 2010 Looking grim, no birds reported in Scotland yet
OLDYELLOW Posted July 12, 2010 Report Posted July 12, 2010 6.20 last night to scarb and another late last night
midnight_son Posted July 12, 2010 Report Posted July 12, 2010 Any idea about returns down there ? Unless there are a good 30 or 40 home by now we're going to be really struggling to get more than a handful home in SNFC in the next 3 or 4 hours.
OLDYELLOW Posted July 12, 2010 Report Posted July 12, 2010 as said only 2 on top allotments , other allotment no birds , my club no birds as yet and raining
thunderbigbaws Posted July 12, 2010 Report Posted July 12, 2010 what section is donald in south i would say due west of annan, best of luck to all
