168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lotto Soudal Ladies announced the signing of 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Jesse Vandenbulcke to their roster for 2020. Vandenbulcke, 23, spent four years with the programme as a novice, junior and first-year elite but left the sport due to back pain in 2016.&nb♎sp;

An impressive comeback this summer saw her secure the Belgian road race title while racing for 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Doltcini-Van Eyck Sport and she hopes to continue that success into 2020 wit🥂h Lotto Soudal Ladies.

"There was a great atmosphere in the team back then, it even 🦹felt like a f⛦amily," Vandenbulcke said on the team's website.

"Riders and staff had a great bond. When we see each other we often talk about that time. I always maintained a good contact with the team and I am very happy to return to Lotto Soudal. I'm convinced that I will feel good at Lotto Soudal and will be surrounded 🌄with the best care."

Vandenbulcke joined the pro ranks with Lotto Soudal Ladies in 2015 after spending much of her youth developing on the team's novice and junior-level categories. She moved to Lares-Waowdeals in 2016 but a back injury forced her out of the sport. In 2017, she gave birth to🎃 her son and then made the decision to slowly return to the spor🅠t while working a full-time job.

"I quit cycling in 2016, in my second season as an elite rider. My back hurt too much. I couldn't train without pain and also in my everyday life I had problems. But as time passed, it felt like I wasn't ready with cycling quite yet. I hadn't achieved my goals yet. People also often asked me if I would still race ag🦂ain. And so I decided to make a comeback. I am still very happy with that decision," Vandenbulcke said.

Vandenbulcke worked her way back up the ranks beginning with club-level racing before signing a contract to race with Doltcini-Van Eyck Sport this season. Her season highl꧒ights included victory at the Belgian National Championships, 11th at Gent-Wevelgem, sixth on stage 3b of the Tour de Feminin and 10th on th🌼e final stage of the Lotto Belgium Tour.

"When I made my comeback I had a plan. First,🌃 I wanted to ride for a club team and see if it was really feasible to get my place in the bunch back," she said. "In the beginning I worked full-time, but still I managed to have a good start. Then I got the offer to join a UCI team. It's now or never I thought and I decided to start working half-ti☂me. From then on I could train more specifically and take more rest. And then I became Belgian champion. You need some luck, but you must also work a lot.

"I had never thought my comeback would go so smoothly though and that I would become Belgian champion this year. Up till now I didn't have any back problems, but I am alert. I have a good team around me that monitors me closely. They see to it that I suffi♑ciently train my back muscles and that I have the right bike position and saddle."

Vandenbulcke is aiming for progress during the 2020 season with Lotto Soudal Ladies but is also looking forward to being a support rider for Lotte Kopecky in the sprint finishes. 💖She is aiming for strong performances at the spring Classics - Omloop Het Nieuwsblad, Gent-Wevelgem and Tour of Flanders - while also supporting her teammates at the hillier Ardennes Classics. 

She is also aiming to defend her national title and, in future, to🌃 compete in the World Championships.

"By conquering the Belgian title I realized one of my goals much sooner than ever expected," she said. "Now I would love to wear that jersey a second time in my career. That is a new goal for the future. And when the course suits me I once would love to get a good result at the World Championships. But that will only be poss𓄧ible in several years time."
