Formula 1 lofts Have bred 1st open BICC & 1st open NFC national in 2008. Also our bloodlines have been 3x1st sections in national & Classic races. Formula 1 lofts bloodlines have also been 2x1st open hen nationals in the BICC and 2nd Yearling BICC national in the last 2 years.
1st open NFC Hens National 2008 John Cowlin of Formula 1 lofts this super 2 year old hen was also 8th open BICC this year. John is also 8th open Y/B national only sending 2 birds also 3rd gold ring race.
At Formula 1 lofts our aim is very simple and that is to win each and every race we enter be that 90 miles or 700 miles. Formula 1 lofts is owned by John Gladwin & John Cowlin we both race separately myself as Gladwin & Jarvis and John Cowlin as himself. We have both been around pigeons all our life in fact the Jarvis part of my flying name comes from my wife’s Theresa maiden name and where did we meet at a pigeon do with her father being a very good pigeon flyer as well. So she has been around pigeons all her life and she still can’t pick one up but she is very good at letting them out etc.
After much consideration we decided to set up formula 1 lofts in 2002 we then spent the next 18 months looking around for the best pigeons we could find with 3 main things in mind when we looked at each family of pigeons were firstly they must be from someone who was winning in good competition for a number of years. Secondly and probably most important was there were winning for others in many areas. And thirdly they were winning the types of races and over the same type of terrain as ours would have to race over. With this in mind the first name which kept coming up was M&D Evans Myrtle lofts and this was confirmed after there performance in the 2003 1 loft race. The second name which we kept seeing was that of Ron Williamson of Ireland fame and the results of this fancier are out of this world and more importantly he is also breeding many winners for others as well.
It has taken us 3 years to put these family’s together but we believe we have a outstanding gene pool to work with not all of the pigeons we have will bred winners but rested a sured any that don’t bred the goods don’t stay here long however we don’t sell any old birds which have been bred from for two reasons the first being if they aren’t good enough for us they aren’t good enough for you and secondly if they are breeding the goods we don’t want to sell them for any amount of money. As stated above our main aim is to bred pigeons to win races both for ourselves and others and to continually improve our stock to this end no money is taken out for ourselves all is put back in to improve our stock and replace any that with a heavy heart we have had to move on no matter how much we paid for it.
Formula 1 lofts are proud to present a competition for people that have had birds from us as we go through a major overhaul of our stock at the end of the season and we don’t want to make any mistakes and suppress any birds that are breeding the goods in error.
Remember we do not sell birds that have been bred from so these birds will not come up for sale.
So what we are offering is two prizes firstly a prize of 6 2009 Y/B’S for the loft who in the eyes of an independent judge has the best single performance or best loft performances from all the entries received with birds either bred at Formula 1 lofts or that contain bloodlines from birds through us.
The second chance to win will be open to anyone who sends us there results in with birds bred by formula 1 lofts or with birds that contain our bloodlines. There names will go in to a draw and the winner will be pulled out at random and that loft will also win a kit of 6 2009 Y/B’S
The results do not have to be just from this season they can be any time since formula 1 lofts started selling birds in 2005.
Our own racing lofts are not eligible for any prizes nor are the racing loft of JP&J Gladwin. Who we at Formula 1 lofts would like to congratulate on the superb performance in winning the BICC National from Tours 405 members sent 3,693 birds with a bird bred by Formula 1 lofts.

"John first visited Myrtle Lofts in the year 2004 where he obtained a very selective team of youngsters containing some of the very best bloodlines that we had to offer. After getting to know John and his family over the last few years we have no hesitation in recommending these bloodlines and feel confident prospective purchasers can be equally satisfied they are purchasing the Genuine Article"
