sapper756 Posted July 12, 2012 Report Posted July 12, 2012 With the possibility of a bit of respite from the heavy rain we have been experiencing lately, who will be taking advantage and train their doos? Is it youngsters, or older birds preparing for an up and coming National race? GOOD LUCKhttp://forum.pigeonbasics.org/public/style_emoticons/default/animatedpigeons.gif
TheHigg Posted July 12, 2012 Report Posted July 12, 2012 dont know what to do freak weather conditions here in wishaw at the moment bone dry no rain how strange is that
Poppy Loft Posted July 12, 2012 Report Posted July 12, 2012 Taking my 26 ybs about 10 miles in about an hour. Beautiful morning here, though normal service of rain is forecast for this afternoon!
Guest IB Posted July 12, 2012 Report Posted July 12, 2012 Just a note of caution - rain stopped play for BoPs too, so be careful today. I'm hoping to train 3 for SNFC Clermont, and 2 newly broken yearlings for next season.
alex young Posted July 12, 2012 Report Posted July 12, 2012 Hoping to get a 20miler in a bit later today for the y/birds they have had 11 tosses to date at about 15 miles.Won't be training tomorrow friday the 13th.

kirky Posted July 12, 2012 Report Posted July 12, 2012 had my ybs away again this morning came well even picked up yb missing from yesterday on route,
Tony C Posted July 12, 2012 Report Posted July 12, 2012 Not got mine going yet, all I'm hearing is tales of bad training tosses down this way. Am beginning to wonder if the MOD are to blame, who knows what type of signals they're pushing into the atmosphere to protect the Olympics.
Guest stb- Posted July 12, 2012 Report Posted July 12, 2012 was going to baskett now but the rain is back so canny be assed now

john cumming Posted July 12, 2012 Report Posted July 12, 2012 ive been all over the norheast of scotland today and the east side is by far the poorer side with overcast & rain all morning, the further west you go the better it is, n im not training young birds, not racing them, will train them all through the winter john
frank mitch Posted July 12, 2012 Report Posted July 12, 2012 Took my 60 youngsters for their 2nd toss today, a distance of approx 10 miles, most of them took between 45 mins to an hour to home, still waiting on a few. Perfect weather conditions for training!
