Remco Evenepoel has began his preparation for 2025, a week after he had surgery on his teeth. Evenepoel had a super year in 2024, including a world title, two Olympic golds, and a Tour de France podium, and returned with an easy 60km ride.

The Belgian star is looking to close the gap to Tadej Pogacar and Jonas Vingegaard at the 2025 Tour de France, and fans will be hoping he can get closer to the top two in the mountains so we can have a three way fight for the yellow jersey.

It seems that whilst the surgery has given him a swollen jaw, it won’t be impacting his training too much. His first ride since the surgery took him Halle and through Schepdaal, his home, for a ride of over 60km in less than two hours. “Learning to ride a few teeth lighter,” he joked on Strava.

With his trip to the dentist now out of the way, Evenepoel can get back to work as he builds towards a big year in 2025 with his team Soudal – Quick-Step.
