I am 34 years old and race with pigeons from 1979.

In the beginning I raced only short and middle distance races. The best results are: 10 times General Champion of Pdv. de Witpen (30 members), 5 times 1. Ace Pigeon Short+Middle Distance, 100 times 1. Price Pdv. de Witpen (30 members), 20 times 1. Price SS.Valkenburg (± 200 members) at distances from 80Km till 800Km.

In 1992 and 1993 I bought some pigeons for the long distance races. I start breeding with them in 1994. The youngsters are raced in 1994 till 250Km.

In 1995 I started with the long distance races. I raced the first three years with cocks and hens at total-widowhood with about 40 old and yearling racing pigeons. In 1997 I stopped definitive with racing the short and middle distance races. In 1998 I raced only with cocks.

In 1999 I raced with 36 cocks on widowhood and 6 hens on a young of 4-5 days. In 2000 I started to race with 48 cocks on widowhood. I stop racing with the hens.

In 2001 I want to race with 48 cocks on widowhood and 6 hens on a young of 4-5 days.
