Great celebration in the Netherlands where Annemiek Van Vleuten has given birth to her firstborn, Alex. Born in '82, the Dutch champion has been one of the greatest cyclists of her generation, winning 4 world titles (two road and two time trial), an Olympic gold medal in Tokyo, a European championship, four Giro d'Italia and a Tour de France, just to mention some of her major achievements.

In 2023 she hung up her bike and started a new chapter in her cycling career, joining the Fenix Deceuninck staff as a performance mentor at the beginning of this year. Motherhood is a new challenge that we are sure Annemiek will face as she always has, with determination, but above all with a lot of heart.

From the tuttobiciweb editorial team, our warmest congratulations to mom Annemiek and dad Oscar. Will this be a new world champion of cycling? It's too early to tell, but if he takes after his mother, he's already on the right track.
