iddy davies (bargoed) 1st & 2nd centre section 1st &2nd open
maidstone national


the above organisation got its 2011 young bird campaign underway from
maidstone in kent on sun 28th august ,this was delayed by twenty four hours in
reflection of both the weather forcast and the large number of federations
advertised to the south and along the line of flight on the saturday


   with other federations and organisations also planning to liberate the same
day from the same liberation site  our convoying team had difficuties in finding
adequate room to release there convoy and with the welsh national fying club
being convoyed by the largest domestic welsh organisation the welsh north road
federation room was at  a premium  
 
   around 9.45 am and ,with the  early morning mist slowlly lifting our convoying
team reported that other convoyers were preparing to cut strings but also
indicated that the marjority of the pigeons  that were being released prior were
taking their time to clear the site , with that in mind and with a final check
on the line of flight the race controlling committee gave the boys on site the
go ahead to release when they deemed fit to do so


   on speaking to one of our race controllers teg whitlock shortly after 10 30
he informed  me that that the boys were happy and confident that their was
northing  in their way and the strings were cut releasing the birds  at 10..15
,the weather conditions along the line of flight were forcasted as being  a
south westerly wind on liberation  turning to a brisk north westerly head wind
further down the line of flight   towards the  berkshire and wiltshire areas and
continuing along the m4 corridor towards the home end


considering the wind direction early expectations was for the leading  birds
to approach south wales to the south of the severn estery crossings ,however on final
checking it has since been confirmed that  leading the field with 1st and 2nd
centre section 1st 2nd open once again from this race piont is the  bargoed loft
and fancier  iddy davies timing in two together  via ets at 12.16.36 and 14 .16
.38 with a respectable  4hrs  on the wing recording  vel of 1210.49 and 1210,32 
, the first on the clock being a young cheq pied cock .followed  by
a a chequer hen  both of  these  arrivals are bred down from the jack cornes
galaxy assassin pigeons and notches up yet another fine perfromace for iddy  and
the galaxy stud the original founders of these winning lines  ,it has also been
recorded that this is now 24 x 1st and 2nd national positions recorded to this
loft and a credit to his management of top flight competitors


we stay in the bargoed area of the valley`s for the next two arrivals these
go to the cefn hengoed loft of jason morris timing in for 3rd and 4th section
and open on 14.16.14 and 14.16.18recording  velocities of  1208.3 and 1208.3
jasons arrivals were both cheq`s a cock and hen   for the record ,most will
remember jason as a previous convoyer for the wnr federation and a regular
figure on the lorries,and a past whpu major trophy winner,  however  on speaking
to him shortly after he timed in although he was aware of the outcome, this
didnt stop the ecitement that he had in his v0ice on achieving these positions
against some of wales finest ,in fact by the time i had called him up  he was
more than aware of times in and around the area and started to tell me ,how did
we manage before the mobile phone !!!!!!!


    on rounding off the other sections for 1st north section we head over to
pontypool and lofts of the ever present derek flowers timing in at 14.06 with a
vel of 1202.7  for yet another top section win to his credit ,narrowlly in front
of fellow club members mr & mrs bromley on 1201


the south section on this occation  was won by the hawkins family of newport
timing in at 1403 and vel of 1298 followed by the fishlock brs & son on 1168
vel

 as you can see by the velocities some of the birds made easy work of the head
winds whilst others struggled ,however by nightfall it was pleasing to see that
members were only reporting the odd one or two adrift which indcated a
successfull event to get us underway ,
      we now move on to folkestone next week with the europa classic one loft
race sponsored voucher up for grabs for their 2012 event and the jack jenkins
memorial cup to the winner
