'She is insane' – Lorena Wiebes ticks off 100th victory with Gent-Wevelgem win

SD Worx-Protime's Dutch rider Lorena Wiebes celebrates as she crosses the finish line to win the women elite 'Gent-Wevelgem - In Flanders Fields' one day cycling race, 169.1 km from Ieper to Wevelgem, on March 30, 2025. (Photo by JASPER JACOBS / Belga / AFP) / Belgium OUT.

Seven years ago, in May 2018, a 19-year-old Lorena Wiebes recorded her first professional victory, sprinting to the win in the 7-Dorpenomloop Aalburg, a talented junior showing she could do it in the elites, too.

Fast forward to this Sunday, and Wiebes has just taken win number 100, defending her Gent-Wevelgem title and sitting comfortably as the best sprinter in the peloton – perhaps ever – with sprint accolades like a Champs-Elysée Tour de France Femmes stage victory and a Milan-San Remo win to her name.
