Jolien D'hoore (born 14 March 1990) is a Belgian former track and road cyclist, who rode professionally between 2007 and 2021 for the Topsport Vlaanderen–Ridley, Lotto–Belisol Ladies, Wiggle High5, Mitchelton–Scott and SD Worx teams.^[4]^[5] D'hoore is a 29-time national track champion as well as a four-time national road champion at all competition levels.^[6] She won the bronze medal in the omnium at the 2016 Olympics and during her career was one of the strongest sprinters in the women's peloton. Since retiring as a rider, D'hoore now works as a directeur sportif for UCI Women's Continental Team AG Insurance–Soudal–Quick-Step.

Career

Most notably, she won the Belgian national road race championship in 2012. At the 2012 Summer Olympics, she was 5th in the Women's omnium.^[7] D'hoore signed with the Wiggle–Honda team for the 2015 season,^[8] winning 13 races in her first year with the team to become the most prolific winner in the women's peloton in 2015.^[9]

D'hoore won the bronze medal in the omnium at the 2016 Olympics. She won her first gold medal in her career in track cycling in the European championships. She won the madison with her partner, Lotte Kopecky. In 2017 they repeated this feat at the World Championships in Hong Kong. After three years at Wiggle High5, D'hoore signed with Mitchelton–Scott for 2018,^[10] and later joined Boels–Dolmans for 2019.

In September 2021, it was announced that D'hoore's last race would be the inaugural women's Paris–Roubaix the following month, and that after her retirement from competition she would take up a directeur sportif position with NXTG by Experza from January 2022, combining the role with a position with Cycling Vlaanderen.^[11]
