Last time we told you that almost all our racers did not participate to the races last weekend. For some of them it meant that they had to go to the Sermaises (362km) race with only two 100km races as preparation. Far from perfect! The Sermaises race was a very tough one with strong headwinds and fog in the start. Our first prize winner “Blanca 2”(BE22-6020039) had an average speed of 1,188 m/min. Our birds were outstanding on their first middle distance race of the season!
