Penzance - Monday 25/06/12
Posted: Sat Jun 30, 2012 8:15 am
Penzance – The usual very hard fly
Penzance was the longest race before France and with poor weather conditions forecast for the race weekend it was testing times for the liberation teams following a most erratic cross channel season to date. The two races from Talbenny and the third from Bude were all difficult and many birds failed to return to home lofts. A decision was made to race mark on the Saturday and go for a Monday liberation which was marked down as the best day of the week. Liberation was delayed when the transporters stuck on the soft ground after a lot of earlier rain and thanks to a local farmer and tractor, all lorries were soon lined up. Liberation was at 8.50am in Blue Skies and Sunshine right through to Wexford and up the coast to Skerries.
The N.I.P.A. have liberated in Penzance this morning at 8.50am in Blue sky and Sunshine.
No wind at the release point. On route they have blue sky and sunshine, right through to Wexford and up the coast to Skerries.
At Dublin airport, the wind is coming from 310 degrees ( north west ) at 5 knotts , visibility 10 klms or greater temp 13+ cloud height 1800ft and scattered 2,200ft so good luck to all.
