Training

[THE FIFER]

how many members have started training, and how are you doing, what distance, any losses, etc or your plans

[OLDYELLOW]

ill start when finished rearing , ill wait fer temps above 10 degree , it's a long season and pointless burning your birds before it's begun

[greenlands]

Not to i get youg away from the racers,last year I got caught out and was hit by a peregrine loosing three cocks,all other nest were full and I lost three pair yougens in the nest.Bad start to the season.

When I start I'll be taking them 20 mile a few times then on the transporter till I think they are right to race.

Here in Sydney Australia, I started a bit over a week ago. Tossed the full loft (160 birds) first toss from 15 ks. Then tossed every second day from the same point for 3 tosses then increased to 28 ks and tossed every second day including today. I am 2 down tonight, 5pm Tuesday. Another couple from the 28k mark then to 50k.
