Crazy club racing with the Combine.

Talk about anything racing pigeon related here aslong as there isnt a section for it.

Some years ago the RPRA suggested that organisations consider corridor flying for that reason but some decided they were going to do what they wanted and sod everybody else, does this attitude ring a bell?
As far as bop are concerned we must accept that the situation will only get worse nothing will be done so if we want to carry on pigeon racing we are going to have accept that I’m afraid.
yes Bowbroom, I thought the corridor idea could of been a possibility moving forward.
But as always that was never going to happen down my way, & is still the same today people think that they can dictate what they want
As for the BOP well that's a lost cause, unless they all come down with something that would control number's.

I remember this idea of corridor flying well. It works great for aircraft, but pigeons can't be trusted to stay in the corridor :lol: The fact is so called 'clashing' is less likely now as there are considerably less birds in the sky on race days than in the past. As you rightly say race routes are not the real problem, BOP is. Good luck planning ANY race route to avoid them.
