In this publication I present brief insights into and profiles of some of the best European lofts of long distance and marathon pigeon racing presently operating as we traverse the initial years of a new millennium. I also include an appendix relating to master pigeoners who have now departed to the large loft in the heavens but whose families, strains and dynasties positively impacted upon the sport of those now breeding and racing the thoroughbreds of the sky.
