While Ceylin Alvarado (Alpecin-Fenix) dominated the season early on, Lucinda Brand (Telenet Baloise Lions) has been taking wins left and right these past few weeks.

The two were in a constant battle for the victory at Superprestige Boom. While Alvarado triumphed on the descents, Brand’s endurance from her past in road cycling carried over to help her through the climbs.
