the 1st bird home today was at 1:26.31pm = 1459Y/Min
My 1st bird was in at 1:26.36 = 1455 Y/Min did very well today
My 2nd bird was in at 1:26.59 = 1434 Y/Min another good result
Happy with these today
Looks like its basketing day tomorrow for a race on Thursday due to bad weather at the weekend

I think it’s just as well they only went 22 miles it’s been wet and cold all day here. It’s going to be a bit hit and miss for them to finish their program with the forecast for the next couple of weeks.

Tried many times from Thursday and today to put this on.
Birds raced Thursday 22nd October 114 Miles from Bristol 570 birds lib at 8:30am 512 home as of now. Including my 2 birds but it was a tough race for the birds
winning bird was home at 11:05 am = 1263 Y/min
My 1st bird was home at 11:20am = 1158 Y/Min
My 2nd bird home (went on holiday) at 2:01pm = 595 Y/Min
But their both in the loft for the next race, weather is reported to be bad for the next week so they ar looking at the best race day as Wednesday next week 145 Miles.
