Viv and myself set off with our two transporters filled to capacity with just over 2000 birds on board (trainers and racers). We'd like to thank the fantastic support we've had from the many fanciers who train on a regular basis and support us in our midweek race. If you would like to race with us come along on a Tuesday evening as we race mark birds between 7 and 9pm, you will be very welcome.
