Testimonial from Trevor Gibson, First Time Keto – Fly User…
“Saturday was red hot with temperatures hitting 26 degrees. I was absolutely amazed by how fast that Keto works, it totally rehydrated them in no time. Absolutely spot on! This morning was their first time exercising since Saturday’s race, and man, that Keto certainly does the trick. They are absolutely bursting through the skies, and that is only on a diet mix! The birds are looking better than ever. Thank you so much, Jan!” ORDER YOUR BOTTLE HERE >>>

Why This Race is Officially Pigeon Boss Approved

Peter Lasterie and Hendri Zwiep built an absolute state of the art facility in Abanilla, Murcia. They breathe transparency. When a race gets tough, they stand tall, show everything, and never hide. That honesty is worth its weight in gold, and that is exactly why they have my full backing.
The Spanish Purgatory: Where Legends Are Born
The Murcia region provides a spectacular yet brutal natural filter. Look at the epic 2026 edition. The season kicked off with an impressive field of 1531 pigeons. After a grueling preparation of ten training sessions and four hotspots, only 349 ultimate warriors made it to the grand final of 460 kilometers from Pinzon, Sevilla.
When the baskets opened on Friday morning, March 27, 2026, at exactly 09:00:00 AM, nature decided to test their souls. A steady north easterly wind of about 15.5 km/h created an invisible wall across the entire race path. It turned into a legendary battle of pure character.
More than 31 hours after release, only 66 of the 349 finalists managed to touch down at the loft in Abanilla. That is a survival rate of roughly 19 percent! The absolute king of the skies was Steffen Sommer from Germany. His phenomenal bird, DV 04465 25 3805, won the spectacular first prize of 30000 Euros with a speed of 1113.28 meters per minute. With a total prize pool of 135000 Euros, this is where the global elite comes to play.
Block June 17 and June 18 in Your Calendar for Our Exclusive Collection Tour
The hunt for next season’s glory has already started. To make things incredibly exciting and easy, we are running our own specialized collection transport through Holland on June 17 and June 18 2026. We handle this entirely ourselves because we refuse to rely on external transport. Your birds deserve perfection from the very first kilometer.
Here is the powerhouse new team setup for entries:
The Complete Team: You bring a team of 10 pigeons, and all 10 are immediately fully activated from the start for a flat rate of 1000 Euros. This excludes the transport fee of 10 Euros per bird for our direct transport.
Individual Warriors: Want to test the waters with fewer birds? You can enter individual pigeons for 125 Euros per bird, also excluding transport.
A strict order from The Pigeon Boss: You must vaccinate your young pigeons against Paramixo, and I highly recommend doing it twice! I cannot scream this loud enough. It is the absolute foundation for a healthy loft and a fair fight. Also, make sure your official proof of ownership and beautiful pedigrees are completely ready at the moment of delivery.
Let us crush it together this season under the Spanish sun. Get your teams ready, fuel your passion, and let us see if your birds have what it takes to become true legends!
