Yanne Dorenbos (born 15 September 2000) is a Dutch professional cyclist, who currently rides for UCI Continental team .
Dorenbos is from Castricum, North Holland. He trained at the UWTC in Volharding. A versatile cyclist, he competes on the road and on the track
In December 2016, Dorenbos was crowned Dutch scratch champion in the junior category (under 19). The following year, he won the title of junior national champion in the omnium. He then became European champion in the junior points race in 2018. That same year, he finished seventh in a stage of the Sint-Martinusprijs Kontich and eighth in the time trial of the Ronde des vallées.
In 2019, Dorenbos made his debut in the espoir category (under 23). However, a calf injury hampered his progress.[1] [2] Frustrated, he was sidelined from competition for a year and a half. He finally got back on the bike in June 2021.[3] A few months later, he took part in the Dutch track championships, where he came second in the elimination race and third in the points race.
During the 2022 season, Dorenbos distinguished himself by becoming European champion of the Madison U23, alongside his compatriot Philip Heijnen. On the road, he won a Belgian regional event as well as two races in the Basque Country, thanks to his sprinting skills. He also finished fourth in the Dutch U23 time trial championship, fifth in the Danny Jonckheere Memorial and ninth in the Grand Prix Criquielion.
In 2023, Dorenbos headed to Spain by joining the team Equipo Finisher, the reserve team of Equipo Kern Pharma. On 5 March, he triumphed in the Guerrita Trophy, a round of the Spanish Amateur Cup.[4] Shortly after, he finished fourth in the elimination race and the omnium at the Cairo Velodrome, as part of the Nations Cup.[5] The rest of his season was more disappointing. A victim of overtraining, he did not obtain any other notable results.[2] However, the management of Kern Pharma offered him the opportunity to do an internship with the professional team. He thus joined the squad in August. Under his new colours, he took part in the Volta a Portugal and the Tour of Turkey. In December, he found good sensations on the track by winning two national champion titles, in the Madison and the scratch.
In 2024, Dorenbos returned to the Netherlands by signing a contract with the Parkhotel Valkenburg team, which competes at continental level.[6]
