Xmas Race From Dunbar

[Delboy]

A couple of us are thinking of running a yb Xmas race flown in December from Dunbar. It would be open to anybody flying in excess of 45 miles. Five bird limit at £10 a pigeon. All monies would be paid out minus 10% for expenses . Separate pools etc. This wee venture is for the benefit of the fanciers who just love racing and would like to extend the racing season lol. Whats yer thoughts?

[andy Burgess]

great idea , best of luck with it

[tyson]

better with any age imo

[dava]

Would be a good interest in the winter but would make it any age jmo

[lanarkshire lad]

I think an any age race would be better plus maybe Berwick or Alnwick to get a wee bit more distance jmo.

[Delboy]

Im afraid its a race from Dunbar lads, everybody gets fairer measurements as the convoy is coming straight from east to west. We ve not decided whether only yb or not.

[wullybhoy]

Maybe take young bird trainers aswell at a cost as a lot of guys like my self are basically starting out again or didn't race young birds due to replenishing the birds lost in a $hit season

[Delboy]

Sorry big fella, no trainers in this wan, if it goes the way I think it will go there will be too much at stake to have trainers etc on board.

The pentland fed have had a Christmas race that generates big money for years, more or less any weather up they go, why not .

[Delboy]

Count a couple of us in frae oor area Del.

A lot of thinking to be done with this wee venture, but im sure we can pull together a cracking race and bit of enjoyment for all. Big Tommy was shocked to hear that he is flying almost the same distance as me as he thought id have 9 miles off him. Dunbar is the fairest race point east to west, no obvious advantage to anyone lads, lets get involved and look forward to a wee race at XMAS time.
