FENIX-Deceuninck is returning to the Italian roads, this time for its first ever Giro Donne where it will be racing in its iconic Verde Comodoro jersey.
As the proud naming sponsor, we are excited to present the seven riders who will be taking part in the first Grand Tour of the season, starting on Friday June 30th in Chianciano and finishing on Sunday July 9 in Olbia.
DE WILDE WINS SPAR FLANDERS DIAMOND TOUR
On Sunday, the Belgian rider Julie De Wilde, racing in Women Elite for FENIX-Deceuninck team, reached the golden podium at SPAR Flanders Diamond Tour. Kathrin Schweinberger and Katrijn de Clercq achieved respectively second and third place.
De Wilde’s win comes after being away from the races because of an injury early in the season. Posting on Instagram the photo of her triumphal arrival, the champion commented “teamwork makes the dream work.”
SCHWEINBERGER CAME SECOND AT DWARS DOR HET HAGELAND
The 128km one-day race, featuring a series of hills and cobblestones, saw on Saturday 136 riders at the departure in Aarschot and only 70 of them reaching the finishing line in the Citadel of Diest. The victory went to the Belgian racer Lotte Kopecky, followed by the Austrian Christina Schweinberger of FENIX-Deceuninck.
Getting to the top of the 500-meters final climb, one second after the winner, Schweinberger was supported by her teammates De Wilde and Van Alphen to conquer the podium at Dwars door het Hageland for the second year in a row.
