There are those Sundays when everything just clicks. A crisp blue sky, a light breeze pushing the wings, and that healthy tension at the loft that every fancier knows all too well. The familiar sound of the traps, staring at the horizon, and the pure pleasure when the first bird dives in like a bullet. It is the absolute essence of our beautiful hobby. Last Sunday was exactly one of those days. At exactly 07:00:00 AM, the liberation signal sounded in Quievrain, and 867 old birds took to the sky. What followed was no ordinary race, but a pure demonstration of power and speed. And the driving force behind this spectacle? That was Ahmed Mahmoud from Turnhout.
With a phenomenal performance, the absolute top flyer of the loft claimed the 1st prize in the Soteo Quievrain ranking. His winning athlete, BE6183848.25, stormed towards the landing board at a blistering speed of no less than 1359.2674 meters per minute. At exactly 08:42:50 AM, the bird clocked in, having devoured a distance of nearly 140 kilometers. That is racing with a knife between the teeth!
A Hard Hitting Result with the Small Basket
Anyone who thinks it stopped with just that one early bird clearly does not know the drive of Ahmed Mahmoud. He does not pull off these stunts with mass numbers, but with the razor sharp selection of the small basket! He had basketed a compact but highly lethal squad of just 9 racing pigeons for this confrontation. While the larger dominant colonies were still staring at the clouds full of hope, one Mahmoud pigeon after another dropped from the sky like a stone. Talk about incredible efficiency!
Just take a look at this impressive dominance at the top of the result:
1st Prize: BE6183848.25 takes the golden palm against 867 birds.
4th Prize: BE6183805.25 flashes to 4th place with a speed of 1322.6116 meters per minute.
28th Prize: BE6183836.25 settles firmly into the top 30.
58th Prize: BE6183847.25 grabs a great early prize as well.
And the party was far from over, because his mini armada kept rolling right through the competition, taking 76th, 129th, 139th, and 146th place. This is no lucky shot anymore, this is a true masterclass from a small loft with giant performance power.
The Noyon Campaigns: A Trail of Destruction
When we place these current results into a broader perspective, the pure class of the Ahmed Mahmoud Pigeons becomes undeniably clear. The data from the Noyon races this season show that the competition is having weekly sleepless nights. On April 12 2026, Mahmoud pulled off the impossible by claiming the entire podium against 659 old birds in Turnhout, taking 1st, 2nd, and 3rd prize with three of his stars arriving simultaneously! On May 3, he continued that devastating streak. Not only did he secure the 1st prize locally against 262 birds, but his super pigeon BE6103640.25 also blew away the entire regional competition, winning 1st prize against a massive 2465 racing pigeons in the major Antwerpen Centraal federation! Even on the race of May 24, with a tighter field of 211 birds, he displayed his trademark consistency by instantly seizing 5th and 6th prize. This is pigeon racing at the highest possible level, where passion and skill come together.

The gene pool at the lofts in Turnhout is of absolute top quality, which is immediately reflected in an unbelievable list of historical championship titles.
The history books do not lie, as we are talking about a loft that has accumulated a sensational track record over the years:

Excellent care, great motivation, and a ruthless selection process ensure that only the very best are allowed to stay. That pays off on races like this, where the birds have to fight for every single meter.
