Ladies Lani Wittevrongel and Ilken Seynave join Lotto Dstny Ladies Team

Only 19 years old, but Lani Wittevrongel has already put eyes by taking silver on the European Championship scratch. “My grandfather was a race commissioner and that’s actually how I started cycling. At 13 years old, I did cyclocross and later on I also started cycling on the road. Now I combine track cycling with the road. Having signed with Lotto Dstny for next year is a very nice step, I hope to grow and learn as much as possible”, Lani Wittevrongel, who is studying communication sciences in Ghent, says.

Ilken Seynave (17 years old) has proven already her time trial skills, by becoming national champion this season. “I also became Belgian Champion in cyclocross, it’s something that I want to keep on combining with road cycling. At ten years old, I started mountain biking, last year I made the step to cyclocross and this season I also do a lot of road races. I’m super happy with the chance to ride for the Lotto Dstny Ladies Team, with a beautiful program. I hope to grow, also on climbs, and I’m certain I’ll be able to do this in my new team.”

Sports Manager Kurt Van de Wouwer is equally happy to reinforce the Lotto Dstny Ladies Team in 2025: “Both Ilken and Lani have several qualities. Ilken combines the road with cyclocross, Lani also puts her focus on the track and both of them have qualities on the road as well. We always search new Belgian talent, so these new signings fit perfectly in this story.”
