Ilse's Bio

Ilse Pluimers, the Dutch powerhouse on the bike, has been part of AG Insurance - Soudal since 2021 and made a strong impression over the past year. She left her mark on the Simac Ladies Tour with an impressive solo performance that highlighted her fighting spirit and determination.

Raised in a sporty family, with a grandfather and parents who passed on their love for cycling, it was almost inevitable that Ilse would discover her passion for the sport. A true powerhouse, she thrives in time trials and on short, steep climbs where strength is key.

For Ilse, cycling is more than a sport—it’s a way of life. Her ambitions include winning iconic races like the Ronde van Vlaanderen and Paris-Roubaix and achieving the ultimate goal of becoming a World or Olympic champion.

Outside of cycling, Ilse enjoys life’s simple pleasures, like indulging in sushi, which is always a surefire way to make her happy.
