Golden Algarve OLR (PT)
Final stars and Ace Pigeons
The Portuguese Golden Algarve One Loft Race is a fantastic yearly event for International pigeon sport. Fanciers from across the world make the trip to see their favorites battle for honor and a total of over 1 million Euro in prize money! Late July, the first training flights were scheduled which ended on August 20th with a toss across 120km. Hereafter, the ace pigeon program started with races of 170km, 205km, 230km, 300km and 500km during the final of October 1st. Where training 1 still counted 6,807 participating pigeons, 3,622 pigeons were basketed for the final race. The final across 505km was selective, with the first pigeons reaching speeds of just over 1200 m/min and 600 pigeons returning to the lofts on the day of release. In this auction on PIPA, the stars from the final and the ace pigeon competition will be on offer; strong pigeons, often with a renowned background.
Maarten Huijsmans (NL)
Total auction
Many victories in large competitions and (inter)national ace pigeon titles put him in the spotlight time and time again. His small breeding team, consisting only of national stars, form the steady foundation to his success. These cracks were never sold, which led Maarten to becoming a national superstar.
Now that Maarten has decided to move, he is left with no other choice but to say goodbye to his whole colony - without doubt one of the best in The Netherlands. The choice to auction his pigeons - with no exceptions - is a logical step. World-famous pigeons will be on offer, including Super Cees, Pia, Olympic Roel, Super Yearling, Ace Hen, Blue Pearl, Special Diamond, Super Talent, Next Universe, Blue Dream, Simply The Best, Super Dutch...all (national) winners and ace pigeons. Pigeons that brought Maarten to the highest level, but certainly also helped other lofts win. In 2022 alone, achievements including 1st Nat. Champion Long Distance NPO, 1st NPO Fontenay (380km) 4,410 p. and 1st NPO (Issoudun 525km) 2,472 p. where all on account of pure Huijsmans pigeons! This is a last chance to get your hands on these golden bloodlines; not only children to his cracks, but the superstars themselves! Exclusively on PIPA.
Barcelona Special
The first weekend of July is circled in red for many fanciers in Western Europe; it is the weekend of the most prestigious race of International pigeon sport. The race from Barcelona is almost magical, and one that many fanciers look up to. A Barcelona winner is always a super pigeon - many colonies were built up from their bloodlines. PIPA offers children from current Barcelona icons in auction. Pigeons from stars such as Cor De Heijde, Alain Delhove, Verweij-De Haan, Jelle Jellema, Frans Bungeneers, Van Ouwerkerk-Dekkers, Carlo Gyselbrecht, Herman Hendrix and Gerard Schalkwijk will be available.
