geordie1234 Posted September 8, 2013 Report Posted September 8, 2013 What OLR would you send too in the UK?
MIK Posted September 8, 2013 Report Posted September 8, 2013 if i was going to send to any it would be "the somerset" and "the north coast classic" over here. Both are well run and nothing on-toward about them. Somerset can get it tight, but NCC seem to get good birdage to the final. atbMick
billt Posted September 8, 2013 Report Posted September 8, 2013 Pigeon pixels is a good one as you are racing in the NIPA with big birdage
MIK Posted September 8, 2013 Report Posted September 8, 2013 Pigeon pixels is a good one as you are racing in the NIPA with big birdage Bill i agree pixels went well this year...but i didnt like the early training and every race bar the Final was a tail wind. Big birdage it was, but the loft position makes him one of the shortest flyers and if 20k released 10k is going over the loft as he is in line of flight. Its a matter of follow the leader and drop from sky. They did have a tight final and well done to the winners. atbMick
Kyleakin Lofts Posted September 8, 2013 Report Posted September 8, 2013 I bought an entry in the Scottish one some years back, but they had lots of problems. This year I sent to Pixels and Eamon took care in quarantine, training etc. He had good returns from all races after a blimp in training at the start. Very well run. I also believe the Barcelona loft is well run.

Guest stb- Posted September 9, 2013 Report Posted September 9, 2013 Looks a good set up Rab, when do the 2014 entry forms come out??they will be on the website nearer the time . they make a great day of the hotspot races with barbeques food and drink and have a great presentation night hours after the race where they present trophies and pay out the money . The loft had planning etc and was all set up and fully ready to go before entries were invited . All birds ets rung on arrival at lofts and you are notified direct if your bird is injured missing or goes sick .The hospitality is 2nd to none and you are always welcome at the lofts for a bit ofcraic and a cuppa anytime .
