To win Barcelona is for ever and always to go into the history. Every year somebody is happy with this victory because in one time he's worldwide famous and he's also financial a little better with this.
The race of Barcelona, for most of the fanciers more then 1.000 km is just flew. Fauche Brother is the winner. Their dark cheq hen 1024337 99, now their 'Barcelona Duivin' succeed in a double beat and get National and International Barcelona on their name. But not only this distinction is secure. She's also the winner with the hens, direct good for also the national and international victory with the hens. 20.208 pigeons, she keep behind here, where 11.839 pigeons were from Belgium origin, 3.915 Holland (much less then the other years), 2.408 German, 1.835 French, 143 English and 68 Luxembourg pigeons.

4 x 1e Barcelona

When we see these results you must have very good pigeons on your loft.

The Barcelona Hen is basket on a youngster of 3-4 days old, probably the motive to go home as quick as possible, against a speed of 1.104,98 meter/min over a distance of 1.048,642 km. She's clocked at 6:57 am, Saturday morning, the day after the liberation of Barcelona

Here pedigree :
At fathers side we find the 2 Belgium Olympic pigeons (> Long Distance) Bazel 1997.
"De 39" : 1073439 91 you find the old red strain of Caramin, paired at a blue hen of François Collard (Marbaix la Tour)
The mother is a sister of their "539" who won top on Barcelona, Perpigina and 2 times Cahors. She's a grand daughter of the Laureaat Barcelona Gyselbrecht, who won 1e International Barcelona in 1995
The "Barcelona Duivin" 2003 is a grand grand child from "De Crack 403" who is the 1 World champion Long Distance Versele laga in 1989. This pigeon is very well known in Taiwan as one of the best Belgium pigeons and their grand children are doing very well there.
Fauche Brothers of Waret L'Eveque, champion on the > Long Distance are doing well with their old strain … the De Roo pigeon, out of this pigeon they breed "De Crack 40" and you find this strain also with the 1 National Bourges of Kepski (Mons). But we can say that the Gyselbrecht pigeons gives a new shot in the rose. They trust these kind of pigeons and hope to go on several years like this.
The brothers Fauches stays already several years in the actuality, also in other countries they did well … but to win an international race of Barcelona 2003 is really the top of the bill.

Conclusion :
Barcelona … a lot of the fanciers dream of this … most of them can not get any chance … because you can never win a race for more then 1.000 km with pigeons not from good origin and good paper behind their name.

The lost son
