Good afternoon,
It is with regret that due to insufficient entries into the 2025 RPRA One Loft Race, the Council has decided to cancel this year’s race.
The project has been suspended for a full review, and we welcome your suggestions for a refreshed and more viable model.
We hope you can appreciate the reasons for this difficult decision, and we will refund your entrance fees by the same process as they were received.
Yours in sport

Only a few years ago it was sold out in December with a waiting list. There have been unfortunate returns before due to just bad luck. What's changed?

think the new guy hasn't got what it takes he was more bothered about football on tv than birds... sickness was the biggest problem last year

Returns from all OLR are generally poor and the losses are usually far worse than expected from an average racing loft in % terms

Hello Everyone just a quick update one of my two entries has managed to get to the UK premier one loft final (the race is hopefully this Tuesday). Im really please with its performance. If he makes it home its my intention to buy him in and Im back in the pigeon game He is registered under the team name of the Two Arthurs. Thanks to Lee Painter for letting me have such a capable bird. I don't expect to win but Im really pleased to get to the final

Which OLR is that?
