The old birds have had a fantastic season in the national longer middle distance races, including two provincial first prizes and a victory in the zone. It seems a new generation of racing birds is now ready to take over, since the young birds’ team of Derwa-Luxem has been quite successful in the sprint competition in recent weeks!
