We will no longer see Guillaume Van Keirsbulck in the cycling peloton in 2024. The 32-year-old Belgian has decided to hang up his racing bike. Van Keirsbulck became a professional in 2011 with the then Quickstep Cycling Team and subsequently rode for Wanty-Groupe Gobert, CCC, Alpecin-Fenix and Bingoal WB.
"2023, what a year! After 13 years of being a pro cyclist, it comes to an end. Not my own choice but grateful for the past years. I have had a great career, but it is still difficult because I had hoped to race until at least the age of 35."
"I am grateful for all the fans who followed and supported me, the teams and staff for all the opportunities and what they did for me, teammates for the teamwork and also everything we have experienced together, we have seen the world together. I end 2023 with mixed feelings, but I have confidence in the future," Van Keirsbulck said via Instagram.
In his first professional years, Van Keirsbulck was considered a great talent and was even seen by some as the new Tom Boonen. He never managed to live up to those expectations, but he still had a solid career with six professional victories to his name.
