Guest TAMMY_1 Posted July 24, 2014 Report Posted July 24, 2014 we have bee training ours 45 miles nearly every day this week and they are flying about mid day till 1pm and that has been when it has been at it's warmest and they have managed great and our first race is on Saturday about 80 miles so I am sure they will cope with it.
