Mirre Knaven (born 18 August 2004) is a Dutch professional racing cyclist, who currently rides for the UCI Women's ProTeam EF Education–Oatly.[2]

Career

Knaven is the daughter of Servais Knaven, the winner of the 2001 Paris-Roubaix, and Natascha den Ouden, a three-time cyclocross champion. Originally a gymnast, she transitioned to biking in her teenage years.[3]

She achieved her first win at the Gracia Orlova in 2024[4], winning a sprint and also being named best young rider. She went on to win the final stage of the Tour de Feminin later that year, along with the Queen Of The Mountains jersey.

She then joined EF Pro Cycling in 2024, debuting at the Thuringen Ladies Tour. This put her under the management of both her father and mother.[3][5]
