Belgian superstar Lotte Kopecky has unveiled the broad brush strokes of her upcoming 2024 campaign, with an Olympic track medal and a crack at Paris-Roubaix two key aims.

Paris-Roubaix was one of the few races that eluded Kopecky in 2023. The SD Worx rider finished seventh where the combination of a large early break staying away and a bad crash badly limited her options of going for the victory.
