Ceylin del Carmen Alvarado is on fire! Braving the rain and the cold, the FENIX-Deceuninck rider won in the sands of Superprestige Zilvermeercross in Mol, Belgium, with 34 seconds over Dutch national champion Lucinda Brand. This was her ninth victory of the season, and the second of the week after the World Cup in Zonhoven.
“I am very happy,” Alvarado said, who has won four our of five races of the Telenet Superprestige series, which she leads with 72 points. “I heard that Brand had fallen, but she wasn’t running that far at that point, so I thought for sure she would still be able to catch up. She didn’t, so that was the moment for me to open the throttle.”
Her teammates Yara Kastelijn and Marthe Truyen, who started their short CX season over the weekend, finished 9th and 14th respectively. Overall, strong results for the team.
The next Superprestige race ius scheduled on December 30th in Diegem, Belgium.
