yeboah Posted July 6, 2013 Report Posted July 6, 2013 How fast will the birds fly from Ypres today , or when will first arrivals be in each area ?Would say fast Stuart strong wind here it's like Barbados to warm for falcons flying yippee
Novice Posted July 6, 2013 Report Posted July 6, 2013 The wind in Ayrshire is about 15mph SW I would say. My mate was racing North today and took 5 hours for 180 miles. About 30 mph so I would think Ypres pigeons on the East side will do 50mph.

Novice Posted July 6, 2013 Report Posted July 6, 2013 180 miles by 5 hours is 36 mph I quoted the wrong time it was 6 hours. I phoned him just as he timed.
