Joran Wyseure reacts to first Superprestige win: “This is unbelievable”

Joran Wyseure secured his first professional cyclocross victory in style, winning the Superprestige Ruddervoorde. The 23-year-old Belgian from Roeselare, riding for the Alpecin–Deceuninck Development Team, crossed the finish line solo in what he described as an unforgettable moment.

“This is unbelievable,” Wyseure told Wielerflits after his win. “I was good last week in Beringen and had a fantastic start today. Halfway through I had less feeling, but when it went quiet at the front I knew, now I play all or nothing. And it was all, luckily!”

Wyseure timed his attack perfectly, taking control of the race in its crucial moments. “I didn’t want to let it stall too much, otherwise others would come back from the background. I then rode away on tiptoes and immediately had a nice gap. I then chose my own pace and my own line. I did make a slip, but luckily I was able to continue immediately. It’s incredible. To win close to home is fantastic,” he added with a smile.

Wyseure’s victory at Ruddervoorde not only marks a significant achievement in his young career but also hints at a promising future in cyclocross. His tactical brilliance and perseverance helped him secure a memorable win in front of the West Flanders crowd.
