19/07/2018 - 45th National Barcelona with grandson Drogba
Never before, has Bas had such a topper on his loft such as NL13-1920169 "Kasper."
According to Bas, "Kasper" in the hand is the type of pigeon, that is dear to his heart: silky smooth and very balanced. When "Kasper" landed on the board at 16:16 o’clock, Bas had a few emotional moments. Even now when he recalls that moment his body shivers. Anyone, who has experienced an early pigeon from Barcelona, knows what it means and what it does to you. And, then when the standard bearer and the favourite of your colony does it, you get an indescribable feeling. Sunday, July 8, 2018, will be a day Bas will not soon forget.
When "Kasper" landed, it just happened that Bas had Hans Eijerkamp on the phone, who was literally there live, and with a vibrating voice, Bas could just barely tell Hans that it was a grandchild of their famous Drogba"Drogba".
"Kasper," what a pigeon! Such great performances, under any and all conditions, is what makes this pigeon so unique. Last year from Marseille at 21:50 p.m in the evening, in 2016 at 04:15 a.m in the morning from Pau and now, after so many hours on the wing, very early from Barcelona, man oh man something to enjoy….
His father is the foundation breeder "Louis" direct from Cor der Heijde and, his mother is NL10-1271721NL10-1271721 "Ivora", direct from Hans & Evert-Jan Eijerkamp. What these two golden breeders have already produced is unprecedented, a carload of top prizes. Bas has decided not to race the "169" again, quite simply he has nothing left to prove competitively.
