Jan de Wijs - (The Pigeon Boss)
This weekend, Section 8 witnessed a memorable edition of Melun Andrezel. The big winner is Joost de Vries from Lunteren. With his crack pigeon NL25-1061021, he etched his name into the history of pigeon racing. His winning bird clocked at 14:18:27 with a remarkable 1380.783 m/min.
On 6 September 2025, Afd. 3 set free 2501 pigeons from Lorris at 09.00 for a distance of 464.868 kilometers. Conditions were steady, and the deciding factor became sheer loft quality. At 14.33.45 Team GPS Elshout stopped the clock, securing 1st place with a velocity of 1392.865 meters per minute. They didn’t just win — they dominated. The first four arrivals in the result sheet all bore the GPS signature, locking down positions 1 through 4. That is not luck, that is mastery.
Union Antwerpen Oost set course from Melun on September 6th, 2025. 1160 young pigeons from 54 fanciers were released at 08:00. Distance to Putte: 302.326 km. Winning speed: 1419.593 m/min.
The name J. Heeren from Sprundel has been around in Brabant pigeon sport for years, but this result is a true statement. With just twelve pigeons entered, Heeren managed to dominate the race with a result that speaks volumes.
The classic from Gien brought 2050 racing pigeons to the skies of Zeeland ’96. At 09.00 the baskets opened, and with a strong south-eastern wind it was a race that demanded everything from both pigeon and fancier.

Barcelona isn’t just a race — it’s the race.
And I, Jan de Wijs – The Pigeon Boss, will win… or die trying.
The countdown has begun. Barcelona… prepare yourself.
If you want to give your marathon pigeons a natural performance boost, Herbovet Herbobeets is the perfect addition to their diet. This concentrated beet juice is one of the top products for improving endurance and recovery in pigeons. I’ve been using beet juice for years and have seen firsthand how it enhances oxygen efficiency and speeds up recovery after long flights.
Last Wednesday, I loaded up a group of pigeons and drove to Steenbergen for a training toss. Everything seemed perfect — blue skies, a light tailwind, and a basket full of eager wings. But when I got back home, I noticed something was off. Three of the birds didn’t return on time. They came back eventually, but much later than expected, and visibly tired.
Now, most fanciers would chalk it up to a tough day and move on. But here at my loft, every pigeon gets the attention it deserves — not just physically, but mentally too. And believe me, that mental side is massively underestimated in the pigeon sport.
