| Hi All, our club is racing from Wincanton tomorrow hopefully the weather will be as good as it is today.
can I ask about the birds flying times and velocity when birds are racing what is the avarage speed that a bird should be doing I know it will depend on distance and weather but on avarage what is a good speed or even a very good speed for a bird ????
Thanks,
Tony |

The N.E.H.U race from Melton Mowbray 21/4/2012 was won by Peel bros of South Shields, they took 1st club 1st fed, also taking 2nd and 4th club and 15 of the 25 birds clocked in the club......well done Peel brothers.
