This weekend, the Druyts sisters from Belgium will line up at the Prudential Ride London Grand Prix, marking the first time that four sisters have participated in a World Cup race together.
Kelly Druyts (26), Jessy Druyts (22) Demmy Druyts (20) and Lenny Druyts (19) from Wilrijk in Antwerp, along with Gilke Croket and Kelly van de Steen, will line up for the Topsport Vlaanderen-Etixx-Guill d’Or team in Saturday’s race.
The four sisters are not the only talented cyclists in the family as their brother Gerry also races at a high level. 25 year-old Gerry is on the UCI Continental team Crelan – Vastgoedservice and was 10th on a stage of the Tour de Wallonie earlier this week.
In addition, another sister Steffy was a multiple national champion in gymnastics.
best of luck, great kits too!
