“I hope I was able to contribute my bit. I want to wish you all very happy holidays” - Remco Evenepoel raises thousands for charity

Remco Evenepoel had an unforgettable 2024, securing his status as one of the brightest stars in cycling. The 24-year-old Belgian made a stunning debut at the Tour de France, winning a stage, finishing third overall, and claiming the white jersey for the best young rider.

Evenepoel’s success didn’t stop there. At the Olympic Games in Paris, he achieved a historic feat, becoming the first male cyclist to win double gold in both the road race and time trial. This extraordinary achievement was followed by another triumph when he defended his world time trial title in Zurich in September.

Outside of his performances on the bike, the Soudal – Quick-Step rider made a significant impact through charity efforts. He raised an impressive €13,000 via a shirt auction, which featured unique jerseys from his standout 2024 season, including those from the Tour de France, the Olympic Games, and the World Time Trial Championships.

Evenepoel further showcased his generosity by adding a personal donation of €10,000, contributed by him and his R.EV Brussels Cycling Academy. "That brings our total to 23,167 euros. I hope I was able to contribute my bit. I want to wish you all very happy holidays. Above all, take care of each other, also after 'De Warmste Week,'" he shared in a heartfelt video message.
