paddymac Posted September 5, 2014 Report Posted September 5, 2014 I would say the wind would play a factor on their fitness as they may struggle with a headwind on the journey home, but if you feel that their flying well enough and the wind is favourable I would send them
jonl6280 Posted September 5, 2014 Report Posted September 5, 2014 The newmains training van is available to take the birds to uttoxeter , or even bigdas trailer
peter2010 Posted September 5, 2014 Report Posted September 5, 2014 Big das trailer couldn't make it by new mains
gulkie Posted September 5, 2014 Report Posted September 5, 2014 Joe their your birds an no one will know their capabilities more than you If you decide to go the very best of luck as most races these days are Based on luck.
dal2 Posted September 5, 2014 Report Posted September 5, 2014 Seems that folk might think I am telling higgy no to do it!!!!! Higgy can do exactly wot he wants of course. If it was me I wudnae send. Big feartie
andy Posted September 5, 2014 Report Posted September 5, 2014 Go ahead and send them, I'll be doing the same next week ay YBN with birds that have been roughing it and came home this week.
SCOTLAND Posted September 5, 2014 Report Posted September 5, 2014 Then when they don't come you can blame the race controllers ! May'be you should look in the mirror first.
kingbilly 1 Posted September 5, 2014 Report Posted September 5, 2014 if fit send these doos wont have the fear factor of gettin chased with birds of pray for the last 5 weeks and could give you a race mind the race could be between 5 or 6hrs all the best
