Career

At the 2012 London Olympics Wild finished sixth in the omnium, and was a member of the Dutch team that finished sixth in the team pursuit (together with Ellen van Dijk, Amy Pieters and Vera Koedooder). [1]

After two seasons with Team Hitec Products, in September 2016 Cylance Pro Cycling announced that Wild would join them for the 2017 season. [7]

In October 2017, one day after the 2017 UEC European Track Championships in Berlin where Wild won gold at the elimination race, Wiggle High5 announced that Wild would join them for the 2018 season. [8] She then joined WNT–Rotor Pro Cycling in 2019. [9]

On 3 August 2019, after coming first in the RideLondon Classique, she was disqualified after her sudden change of direction before the finish line resulted in a crash involving several riders. [10]

Wild competed at the delayed 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo in the madison, where she and Pieters finished fourth after crashing during the race, and the omnium, where she took the bronze medal. After taking over 100 wins on the road, Wild retired from road racing following the Holland Ladies Tour in August 2021. [6] Following this she returned to the track before ending her career at the end of the year, racing in the European Championships, the World Championships (where she and Pieters won gold in the madison for the third consecutive year), [11] and the Champions League. [4] [12]
