The weather circumstances were (again!) tough for the birds. They had to deal with headwinds (again!) from start till end. Our birds showed (again!) that they love to fly in this kind of weather. On the national Bourges (472km) race our first arrival was our super hen “Blanca 1”(BE21-6138132). Her list of racing records is getting more and more impressive! We had the 1°, 2°, 3° and 4° fastest bird in the club against almost 600 birds. We started with the 3, 4° and 5° Prov. Antwerp against 2,468 old birds and number 10 provincial against 3,130 yearlings. We had 4 birds in the national top 100. Also the result on the middle distance race Sermaises (362km) was very convincing.

The birds had to deal with very, very strong headwinds last weekend. These were weather circumstances for the strong birds, the ones with a V8 engine inside. The birds who would be early home on this kind of race have for sure a big potential. We sent our birds to the Sermaises (362km) race. We split our team in two and sent them to two federations. Our birds managed to win the first prize in both federations. We even had the fastest bird of the whole release against almost 7,000 birds! The speed was only 1,171 m/min. Remarkable: both our winners are coming from the same super breeding cock, “Puncher”(BE17-6025361). "Black Widow"(BE22-6020269) won 1° prize in Union Antwerpen against 2,257 birds and was the fastest of the whole release against almost 7,000 birds. "Blue Widow"(BE21-6138360) won the 1° prize in the South Antwerp Federation against 1,044 birds

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!

As already mentioned before, the weather circumstances in Belgium are changing all the time the last weeks. Therefore it is difficult for fanciers to make a decision about whether entering their birds for the race or not. We decided to enter only a small team on the Melun (310km) race (two nights of basket). These birds were the hens meant for the longer distance races. The other birds stayed at home. The weather on the race day was finally better then expected and it became a fast and smooth race. So most of our birds had a resting weekend! Hopefully the weather circumstances will change soon. Luckily we had planned for our birds to be in their top condition later this season.

The weather in Belgium has been not great lately. Therefore we started a bit later than other years. But now it was finally time to enter our birds on the Noyon (208km) race. We are very happy about the result! The weather circumstances were lovely with a bright sky and calm headwinds.

The Algarve Great Derby One Loft Race (Portugal) is one of our favourite one loft races. Our birds have been very successful there in the past. In 2021 two babies from the same nest were outstanding: one youngster was crowned as 4th Ace-pigeon in the Derby Algarve and the other won the first prize in Hotspot 1 against almost 3,000 birds. Also in the 2022 edition our birds were in the spotlight.

It was a beautiful racing day last Saturday. The temperature rose to about 25 degrees and there was a strong head wind blowing from start till end. In the previous article you could read how our youngsters were outstanding on the Melun (310km) race. Here we will discuss the national Argenton (555km) race where we entered some old birds. It was a tough race for the birds so late on the season. This team has been raced on the widowhood system since April, so the season has been a long season for them. But also on this race they did it very well! We started with the 5° prize on the national level and had 8 birds in the national top 100.

The previous national Chateauroux (526km) race was the last race of the season for our star racers like “Super 100”, “Paulina”, “Blanca”, “Ali Baba”, “Donald Duck”, “Cuba” etc. . We kept however a nice team to continue racing on the widowhood system for the national Argenton (555km) race. The birds stayed in the basket till Sunday (3 nights) and our team showed they could perform really well without the captains of the racing team in the race. We sent our young birds to Noyon (208km). It was a rather fast race and our youngsters showed again what they can do best … winning!

Last Saturday was a difficult racing day in Belgium. Extremely high temperatures and bad air quality had a slow return of the pigeons as a result. Even on the short distance races the birds had difficulties to return. We made the decision not to enter birds on the national Argenton (555km). Instead we kept our racing cocks at home and we sent our racing hens to the middle distance race Melun (310km).

Our birds were again outstanding yesterday! After careful consideration, we decided not to enter our Bourges team on the national Argenton race because of the bad weather forecast (predicted scattered thunder storms). Instead we sent them to the Melun race and we split them over two federation (Bourges team of the week before + our middle distance team). It was a very tough race (first bird had velocity of 1,256 m/min) with high temperatures and head winds from start till end. It was the perfect scenery for our birds to show their class.

In the category old birds + yearlings we won the 7 first (!) prize against 1,160 old birds. In the category yearlings we won the 13 (!) first prizes against 670 birds.

Last weekend our birds flew the first middle distance race of the season, Melun (310km). The start of the middle distance season is always exciting. We are very confident about the quality of our racing team. But you always have to wait and see how the birds will perform, how their condition is with the national races being around the corner. Our birds performed very well on this Melun race. We are looking with great anticipation to their performances of the coming weeks and months.
