GOLDEN RACE ALGARVE 2024- HOTSPOT 3- MONFORTE, 207km- INFORMATION
- After consulting our meteorologist, Captain Fernando Garrido, and analyzing the weather forecast for this week, in order to schedule the 50km training and Hotspot 3, we came to the conclusion that the best day to hold Hotspot 3 will be Wednesday, August 28th, as rain and thunderstorms are expected in the release area and surroundings on Friday, August 30th.
- Checking the condition of the pigeons in the loft, and holding the 3rd Hotspot on the 28th, it was understood that the pigeons are fine, have recovered well, and the last pigeons to arrive received special attention in order to recover quickly.
- Although we understand that it would be good for the pigeons to rest for longer time, but between having it on Wednesday, August 28th, with good weather and waiting until Friday, August 30th and not being able to release the pigeons, or it could become a very difficult race, it was decided to hold Hotspot 3, on Wednesday, August 28th, with the release in Monforte, 207km, where the minimum temperature will be 15º and the maximum 33º.
- We regret that we cannot meet the scheduled dates, but the weather is unstable, as it is either high temperatures, or rain and thunderstorms, and so we have to manage the race day by day, or week by week.
Thank you for understanding.
