Ceylin del Carmen Alvarado gets her second victory of season in Superprestige Merksplas - "The form is good, so you expect a few things"

A week after her victory in Niel, Ceylin del Carmen Alvarado won her second victory in a row in the Superprestige Merksplas. She isolated herself on the first lap and continued widening the gap.
"It may have seemed that way, but it was constant giving because, behind me, they did the same. And the lap was tough anyway," said Alvarado. She was trailing behind Marianne Vos but luckily by the end of the first lap she was in lead. "I was a bit lucky with that, it was kind of a good lead-out. She dropped back, after which I had free lane. I definitely took advantage of that," described Alvarado.
This is her second victory of the season. She took victory in Superprestige Niel last week. "You don't forget the first time winning again. That was very special, now I am pulling through. The form is good, so you expect a few things. But you are very happy when it comes out," said Alvarado.
She will, however, have little time to celebrate since she must prepare for World Cup Overijse. "I didn't really worry about that at all during the race it's recovering now, though and then trying to be as fresh as possible at the start tomorrow," concluded Alvarado.

- Look at what Froome’s won since his last TdF, stop denying there is still more than possible one outcome to the future.Mistermaumau21-12-2024

- Exactly. Remco won 3 WT races/stages last year compared to Pogocar's 19. Remco's single stage win in last years TdF earned him a meager 12 seconds over Pogocar who shellac'd him by 9 minutes in GC.Sweep21-12-2024
- Fortunately and as you point out, more than one strategy is possible and worth trying and I’m sure all concerned riders are well informed and counselled on this subject and don’t need such basic personal advice through media from an outsider.Mistermaumau21-12-2024
- The main SPOTY award is "decided" by public vote but the BBC "expert panel" decide who you can choose from, that choice has an equal split of genders and is focussed on the sports BBC show and a disabled athlete. Oh yea the ubiquitous "Pub Games" candidate there too, Darts and Snooker are not sports. The other awards are decided by the "Expert Panel" again it's about the sports BBC show, cycling has had it. Cav got his for his years and achievements in the sport, not just that 35th TDF win. Unless the BBC get access to Pro Cycling it will never feature "adequately" on SPOTYslappers6621-12-2024

- Avoiding him is a good strategy, you get more wins and then you can compete in the TDF relatively relaxed. Pit yourself against Pogi and not only there will be no wins, it will be considerable mental setbackabstractengineer21-12-2024
