Preparing To Race Your Homing Pigeons

My name is Joseph Shung Chiang Lee. I am the member of the Calcutta Racing Pigeon Club. Please start the training in one direction. The direction when where their race point is. So I would mostly pass in the direction of the north and then we increase the distance from 5 kilometers to 10 kilometers, then we increase to 20 kilometers, then 50 kilometers and 100 kilometers. Then after that, then our race starts that is from Asinsol to Calcutta which is 200 kilometers from Calcutta. Then Hasaribak to Calcutta. That is 200 some of kilometers and the next is Guares; Guares to Calcutta which is 458 kilometers. So these three races are for the young bird. Young bird means the bird ages within 1 year old. Then after that there is the Darionson to Calcutta. That is 500 kilometers. Then you go to Mogosori to Calcutta which is about 600 kilometers. Then we go to Elahba to Calcutta. Then it's Concoul to Calcutta and then finally we go to Delhi to Calcutta which is 1431 kilometers. So far the young bird race we have a duration or the break period of one week. And the old bird race we have a break period of about 2 weeks and then from Concord to Delhi, we have 3 weeks interval.
