Dutch trio\u00a0Jeanne Korevaar, Silke Smulders\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0Quinty Ton\u00a0<\/strong>have all put pen to paper, inking new two-year contracts with\u00a0Liv AlUla Jayco<\/strong>\u00a0after all finding their place within the GreenEDGE Cycling family.
\u00a0
The three talents\u00a0came over to Liv AlUla Jayco in January 2024\u00a0following the merger with their former team Liv Racing TeqFind, and\u00a0the trio quickly found\u00a0their feet, proving\u00a0to be crucial team members, each in their own right.
\u00a0
Experienced Korevaar<\/span>
After racing as a pro for the past 10 seasons, Korevaar has a wealth of experience and has used it throughout her first year with Liv AlUla Jayco as a determined and loyal teammate. Ready to challenge for more in 2025, the 28-year-old ‘Dutchie’\u00a0is looking to grow with the squad over the next two years.
\u00a0
\u201cI\u2019ve really enjoyed this year, which is important for me to be able to perform well. I\u2019ve seen myself and the team grow during the races from the beginning until now. The progress is really important.\u00a0I often start as the road captain, and I\u2019m developing myself in that role.

This team is special because of its culture. We race with a plan, and everyone is committed to that plan. Alongside the hard work, there is also room for fun. I think this combination is important.<\/em><\/strong>
\u00a0
In the coming years, I want to improve and achieve results together with the team. My specialty lies in the spring season, and I\u2019m already looking forward to it. I hope to showcase myself and the team there and be\u00a0valuable for sprint finishes and aggressive racing.”<\/em><\/strong>

Smulders stays<\/span>
Young Silke Smulders has enjoyed a standout season, most notably after her late call up to the Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift, where she consistently placed highly on the stages whilst also racing in a support role. Her victory at the Vuelta Ciclista Andalucia and 13th place overall at the Giro d\u2019Italia demonstrated her ability and talent and brings a lot of motivation heading into the new season.
\u00a0
\u201cThis year I made huge steps as a rider, thanks to the support of the team in all different areas. I just feel in my place here at Liv AlUla Jayco surrounded by hard working, positive people. What I found special is that we are there for each other and want to improve together and can push each other. I feel very lucky to be a part of this team. I want to keep building over the next two years like I did this year and be a key asset to the team and dare to take opportunities to win.\u201d<\/em><\/strong>

Tenacious Ton<\/span>
After a hampered start to the 2024 racing season following an injury, Ton managed to fight her way back and begin racing again with the team in May. She quickly found her race rhythm with a superb second-place finish at Vuelta Ciclista Andalucia. Over the remainder of the season, Ton has proven herself to be a trusty teammate, helping Liv AlUla Jayco in a wide range of race situations with still a lot more inside of the gutsy 26-year-old.
\u00a0
\u201c\u2060Despite a nasty start to the season, which left me out of action for the first half, the team has given me a lot of confidence and support. It feels like we have just started and I am happy that I can continue to work on my rehabilitation in this environment and come all the way back to my level next year (and hopefully a bit better).\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>
\u00a0
It is a very professional environment, but at the same time it feels familiar. The Australian vibe that prevails in the team also matches well with the Dutch culture brought by the Dutch girls and staff. Next year I hope to continue this and have a good spring, in which I can show myself. Next to that, I hope to be of value for both the GC riders and the sprinters in their hunt for victories.\u201d\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>

\u201cRenewing the contracts of these three riders was very pleasing for us. They have all, in their own right, given a lot to the team this year and as Liv AlUla Jayco continues to grow, these riders make up the foundations of a solid group of riders. We\u2019re hoping for big things in 2025 and we\u2019re very happy to keep these three talented riders onboard.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
