Here is part of it
Despite what's been said about the loft the Moray Firth One Loft Classic has never been more determined to do better and above all else take on board the things fanciers have said they would like from us in 2024 as we wont be going anywhere regardless of whether we start with 100 or 1000 entries!
Going into next year we won't be so nieve in regards to providing GPS Location of the transporter every time it leaves the workshop, GPS Tracking on pigeons to show that the birds are flying from intended race points, Live footage of liberations and with that be able to show similar velocities and returns to what we had this year which is really the only way I can prove the consistency of this year's racing!
With all that being said I'd like to highlight that we have achieved everything that we had set out to achieve, We conducted 9 races over 15 weeks and have paid out in the region of £40,000 in prizes

Shropshire winter olr training started from one mile
I can’t understand why they start at such short distances. I think the shortest I have ever started off at is 7 miles. Usually 10 miles plus.
My first trainer was around 20 miles

Cotswold o42 birds from the final started with 385 birds started there auction each bird has a £ 100 reserve
£100 reserve way over the top, but then probably to make up some of the shortfall after losing so many birds
