JonesyBhoy Posted October 9, 2016 Report Share Posted October 9, 2016 Back down the West..!!! Stafford, Worcester, Cheltenham and Dorchester.. Then Sartilly and RENNES Hairs on the back of the neck stuff..!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnQuinn Posted October 9, 2016 Report Share Posted October 9, 2016 We have had 2 goes at going back down the old route. First time we never got the old bird program finished and headed east again, then we did get the Ob prog finished the 2nd time. Only problem was there Wee Nae Ob's left in the Fed come the channel race. Imo it's a pile o p**s this east west carry on, we're gonna get humped no matter the route so put a proposal in tae the AGM and vote. Then accept the majority vote with good grace regardless if it's to your liking of not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter pandy Posted October 9, 2016 Report Share Posted October 9, 2016 Sartilly, Rennes to get them over the channel via the Cherbourg Peninsular. We only stopped going there to save a couple of pennies on the Ferry Crossing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We only stopped going there to save a couple of pennies on the Ferry Crossing. Why on earth Peter would we ask doos to cross 70/80mls of open sea when they can cross the same body of water but only flying 25-30mls. This route business only panders (Nae pun intended lol) tae fanciers whims and unrealistic wishes for a return to the good old days. Change for changes sake has never bourne anything but disappointment in my experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnS Posted October 9, 2016 Report Share Posted October 9, 2016 Most important thing from 2016 season is we must go with the SNFC for the longest two races in the programme from now on regardless of east/west route, OR go down a new era of having a federation of only racing up to the 250-280 mile mark having more races at the 150,180 200 mile markers over a 12/13 race season and anyone who is a distance flier still has the full SNFC and SNRPC programmes to satisfy their needs.
