*The Young Couple..one of the best pairs we have ever owned, are the grandparents of our first bird from Bourges …

The 11th June saw two races in the 2016 program..the One Day Long Distance race from Bourges and the Middle Distance race from Sezanne..

Last weeks races were canceled so we were hoping for a steady race this week, however that did not happen. The Bourges race a distance of around 550km to Nieuwendijk was a very tricky affair with erratic returns and slow speeds.
