THE YORKSHIRE MIDDLE ROUTE COMBINE
LIST OF 2015 WINNERS
The combine is 100 miles along its front and 50miles inland to York and has a few hundred members so well done to everyone for their great performances. The combine once again had an excellent racing season flying the full programme right down to the Channel with members reporting having had a good season with thanks going to Race Controller John Rawson and Convoyers Frank and Cliff. We look forward to racing in 2016. The presentation took place at Beverley with an excellent Buffet. Sue and Heather would like to thank the Combine for the lovely bouquets of flowers.
The South section took a lot of beating once again with those ever prevailing Westerly winds sending the birds straight over to the East Coast.
