tommy bhoys Posted September 27, 2017 Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 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.but your so proud of the scottish champs tonight get it rite up you ian :emoticon-0136-giggle: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyleakin Lofts Posted September 28, 2017 Report Share Posted September 28, 2017 Just yards under 80 miles to me in Lugton. Probably the most even race point East to West. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delboy Posted September 29, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2017 Where is the marking taking place will it be on the day of the race Not decided yet but the birds will have to be marked the night before because of the lack of daylight, they will have to be there early doors to await on the lib. Its dark at 3.30pm at that time of year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
