Gyselbrecht-Madeira, "A colony with exceptional class in its ranks!"

 

The combination
Gyselbrecht-Madeira uit Ruiselede

In the coast province we see the colony Gyselbrecht-Madeira regularly having early pigeons year after year in the important races. Enough then to dedicate a piece to them.

In 2004 a start was made in the lofts in Ruiselede under the name Gyselbrecht-Madeira with the Middle and Long Distance races. This combination consists of …. on the one side Dr. André Gyselbrecht and his sons Peter & Hannes, plus on the other side Dr. David Madeira from Portugal.

The Middle Distance - and Long Distance happenings were mainly snatched with pigeons originating from Dr. David Madeira , who has a lot of top Belgium pigeons in his breeding lofts…..Amongst other things he is the lucky owner of a collection of exceptional "fine-fleur"- pigeons from, amongst others, Van Hove-Uytterhoeven (including the "Amsterdam" :70th nat Bourges 12682p - 18th nat Bourges 18657p etc…) , from Georges Bolle (including a son of the 1st nat Dax '98), from J. & J. Engels, from Roger Vereecke, from Roger Florisoone , from Robert & Chris Dobbelaere (including the famous "Express" : 25th nat Narbonne 5619 yl - 30th Angoulème 3363p - 50th nat Cahors 11838p - 56th nat Narbonne 6228p - 92nd nat Montauban 7220p - 192nd nat Montauban 7764p etc…),…….

These origins were later supplemented with pigeons from 2 top lofts from Ruiselede, namely from Antoine & Rudi De Saer and from Rik Cools.

That successes followed speaks for itself!

Results achieved prove the point !

Sensitive strengthening of the breeding loft during the last 2 seasons!
"Don't bring in any fresh blood, in the long run you end up running on the spot ! "……. Is an old saying that is well-known to Gyselbrecht-Madeira…. They didn't lose faith and the last 2 seasons they bought a handful of class pigeons in order to fill a "rich" breeding loft…..A question of adding excellent crossing material.
Included in the purchases we see:

A)
"Le Limoges" 9089312/03 :
1st National Limoges 12266p
With this super pigeon from Bourlard & Fils from the Waalse Harveng they not only bought a national winner, but for a part they also retook a piece of the old stock of the Gyselbrecht family. The grandmother of "Le Limoges" on mother's side is the "Gyselbrecht hen" 95-3267721, through Bourlard& Fils bought in the Gyselbrecht auction in '96. She stems out the "Van der Wegen" NL-93-0054260 with "Sister Blue Barcelona" B-88-4560134 ( take heed!! The "Blue Barcelona" won, amongst other things 7th internat Barcelona '91 and is Vanbruaene-origin).
The "Gyselbrecht hen" is also a super breeding hen who is now grandmother of the 1st nat Limoges, of the 1st nat Cahors, she is further mother of the 1st nat Orange hens , of the 69th nat Béziers, of the 58th nat Limoges, of the 58th nat Narbonne etc….in addition she is also grandmother of the 16th nat. St Vincent and grandmother of the 10th nat Perpignan, etc…. "Le Limoges" is not only a beautiful pigeon, but he can also prove in races with "real" pigeon weather that he really is full of unique pigeon class.
In this way his wins in 2005 included 1st nat Limoges 12266p and 1st nat Limoges Derby 6617p with a velocity of 1041 m/m. In that same season he also scored as 97th National from Cahors against 9275p and 13th nat. zone B against 2863p with a velocity of 1014 m/m. In his pedigree we see the following ingredients:
Father: B-00-9009032: "Father 1st nat Limoges" Is half-brother of "Le Sinistré" from Roosens and is a super breeder who is already father of the 1st nat Limoges '05, of the 16th nat St Vincent '04, of the 10th nat Perpignan '06, of the 1st nat Perpignan hens, ……The "Father 1st nat Limoges" stems from the "Son Carus" B-94-9214643 with the B-90-50081 ( line "Mirador": 1st nat Brive x "Le Forue" Roosens with "daughter Funes")
Mother: B-98-9184495: "Mother 1st nat Limoges" Is full sister of the "Barcelona" (5 x op 5 Barcelona's between '99 and '03) Is a daughter out the "Breeder nr 1": B-86-414371(origin Mersch- Roosens - Deneufbourg including out the line of the "Golden Wing" Yl. Deneufbourg) with the already cited "Gyselbrecht hen". B-95-3267721. Together with this crack , and "Le Limoges" another 5 hens - inbred to the stock mother "721/95" moved to the lofts in Ruiselede, including 2 daughters and 1 granddaughter of the 1st nat Orange.

 

B) "Le 102": 9007102/02 from the great champion Henry Van Neste from the Waalse Feluy. Here also there was a pigeon bought that had already proved itself in the results !
"Le 102" - a unique red cock- who by the way is a full brother of the famous "Supercrack 210/03" from Van Neste - and self won a series of top prizes in the Nationals. So was he: In 2003: 11th from Bourges against 2748 yl.
In 2004:
143rd nat Limoges Derby against 7514p
In 2005:
75th nat Cahors 9275p
33rd nat Narbonne 5963p
46th internat Narbonne against 9224p
In 2006 : 362nd nat Limoges against 9545p
46th nat Cahors 6654p
290th nat Narbonne 6033p
335th internat Narbonne 9634p
In his pedigree we find:
Father: "Le Bleu" 99-9084060 Brother of the mother of the "Super Narbonne" out "Le Coulé" B-93-18601 x B-90-70142 Mother: "Rousse Fille Lingot" : B-98-9001019 Daughter out "Le Lingot" B-92-400600 ( 37th nat Barcelona and for 50% origin Tossens) x "B-92-400541. The brother of "Le 102" , namely "Le Supercrack 210" : B-03-9084210……was in the press in 2006 depicted as one of the best Long Distance pigeons in the country. This super pigeon had already classified itself as :
In 2005 : As 68th nat Souillac 5982p, As 142nd nat Limoges 6617p As 546th nat Cahors 9275p following in 2006 with sublime performances:

C) "De Ramses" B-99-3111854 :

Was 2nd prov Ace pigeon KBDB W-Fl. Middle Distance and Long Distance in 2000 etc…..
The "Ramses" comes out the best of the Dobbelaere loft ……

D) "Bobby Bourges" 6245032/00 from the loft Van Leest-Peeters from Nijlen.
Once again a subject with good results in his honours list that has joined the breeding lofts.

26th nat Bourges 36506p

322nd nat Bourges 23952p


 

E) "De James" 9147007/98 : 1st semi-National Argenton 8405 p from M & G Casaert from Néchin.
By Gyselbrecht-Madeira we systematically see the contribution of pigeons that have proved themselves ! This was no different with the conscious purchase of the "James"…..this magnificent racer has won amongst other things: 1st semi-nat Argenton 8405p
1st prov Chateauroux 2410p
15th nat zone Bourges 2615p
212th nat Bourges 12161p
9th nat zone Bourges 5708p
24th nat Bourges 21593p


F) "De Punch" 9128066/99, also from Casaert from Néchin. Another class pigeon out of this strong loft in Néchin….. The "Punch" is a son from the stock couple "Le Borgne Dedeyne" x "sister 1st nat Montauban 5355p", this last one is a daughter of the "Plume Banche" with "La Belle Deseyn" out the 1st nat Limoges from Deseyn-Vandemeulebroucke, a line that produces marvellous descendants.
The "Punch" won in an earlier limited career amongst other things:
1st Provincial Chateauroux 2673p and highest speed from 5083 pigeons
19th prov Chateauroux 2595p
13th prov Chateauroux 2008p
23rd nat Bourges zone 2408p……


G) "De Ultra" 9128133, full brother of the "Punch".
The "Ultra" has amongst other things, the following victories in his honours list :
8th semi-National Vierzon 16724p
2nd semi-National Chateauroux 4242p
4th interprov Chateauroux 1699p, etc……
Also as strengthening via the loft Casaert from Néchin, we note the "Maxi" 9071618/02…
Here we have an own son of the "Nasdaq" who won 1st National Souillac against 7154p.
The "Maxi" is father of the "Dow Jones" who won 1st semi-National Chateauroux against 11526p and 3rd semi-National Vierzon against 7839p.


H) Also 3 direct Florisone-hens came to conjugate the breeding loft ! 3 hens from Florisone were added for the somewhat tougher distances, including a daughter out the 1st nat Barcelona '99


I ) For the Grand Distance ….. 3 hens from Roger Desmet-Mathys from Nokere In Nokere three hens were chosen, namely a daughter out :
- the "Laudrup" ( 4th nat Barcelona '99 ) with "Daughter James" ( "James": 2nd internat Dax '99)
- "James" with "Daughter Edison" ( "Edison": 1st nat Dax '93)
- "Red Bulle" : 45th nat Bordeaux

J) Strengthening was also bought from the super loft Emiel Denys from Tielt…
In '97 the "Kleine Tee" won by Emiel the 5th nat & 7th international from Barcelona…..from this "Kleine Tee" there sits a son and a daughter in the breeding loft by Gyselbrecht-Madeira, also a daughter out the "Express Barcelona" who won 12th nat Barcelona in '99.

K) For the very last acquisitions we quote the sort of the Gebrs Desbuquois , the "Barcelona crackers" from Kapelle- op - den - Bos. From this colony descendants out the following top pigeons came to conjugate the breeding loft:
- "Roger Barcelona": 1st nat & 2nd internat Barcelona 2006 7th nat Ace pigeon KBDB Extreme Long Distance 2005
- "Emiel": father of the "Roger Barcelona"
- "Lucas III": 2nd nat Ace pigeon Extreme Long Distance KBDB 2005
- "Dina": 5th nat Ace pigeon Extreme Long Distance KBDB 2005
- "Pedro": 6th nat & 28th nat Perpignan

Finally, add the own old sort, so as out the "Laureaat Barcelona" ( 1st internat Barcelona '95), out the "King" ( 96th nat Limoges '92 - 92nd internat Barcelona '94), out the "Turbo" ( 96th internat Barcelona '95 - 76th internat Barcelona '97…), out the "King Junior" (96th nat Barcelona '99 - 78th nat Barcelona '00…) etc…..etc….. Then we can conclude that the breeding loft of Gyselbrecht-Madeira is exceptionally well-armed met an eye on the semi Long Distance, on the one-day tougher Long Distance, plus for the marathons from Barcelona and Perpignan…… One-day Long Distance and the Grand marathon races will now become more and more the main aim for this combination.

The Gyselbrecht family after all these years still by the (inter)national Barcelona-elite !
It is a public secret that the Gyselbrechts have over the years acquired name and fame in the (inter)national pigeon world. Firstly through the absolute super performances of father Remi Gyselbrecht in the Middle Distance. Later…. Around the middle of the eighties …. Once the arrows were directed more and more to the Extreme Long Distance - especially Barcelona - it didn't take long before the Gyselbrechts stood at the (inter) national top in the queens races of the year. Just through constantly searching for the absolute top class to populate their breeding loft. Their vision, coupled with the "rich" experience of father Remi , ensured results, with top of the bill…the international Barcelona-victory in '95 and at the same time during that season the conquering of the "Gouden Vleugel" (Golden Wing) in the BBC competition. If we can just "launch" the summary below concerning the top performances of the Gyselbrechts from Barcelona, then we are certain that everybody will be convinced of the monumental class of that is housed in this colony.
