D'hoore picks Flanders, Olympic Track and Qatar Worlds as season targets

Don't mistake Jolien D'hoore's modest disposition off the bike as a sign of weakness because she is one of the most powerful, fierce racers in the world. She has big plans for 2016 that include a victory at Tour of Flanders, a medal in track racing at the Rio Olympics and maybe even a world title in Doha, Qatar. For a Belgian who prefers to let her legs do the talking, she has a good shot at completing this trifecta.
