Arendonk :
Who does not know him? Karel Meulemans from Arendonk . A living legend in the international pigeon sport . A world race that the current global pigeon has determined : the equivalent of the Janssens - breed except that Karel Meulemans with
His own pigeons prices and championship titles achieved from the fifties to 2001 . In 1999, Charles , called Meulemans - Damen ( his daughter and son- but more on that later ) , Champion of Belgium KBDB on long distance. I made about a newspaper reporter for the long distance but this turned out not to be . Arrived It had little use this report to be published because there were known all new champions in 2000 . I made an appointment with Karel end of season 2001. Why not after the 2000 season ? There was a good reason .
Meulemans - Damen could not get the outcome that year ... several prizes at small distance but in the long distance and long distance would not succeed . Once it was probably the worst year that Charles ever played . An explanation for this can be found elsewhere in this article. A superstar as Karel Meulemans hits hard back . Charles has been in Belgium no longer feared several years in middle distance but the distance and in 2001 (he did not even play anymore ) on the long distance even more . At Brive , Cahors , Dax , Marseille and Perpignan he put luster performances . Barcelona not because this team was not ready. Next year, however , with some hens . Trust me, you'll see him standing ! .
