No rider got even close to Tadej Pogacar's palmares this year. But if anybody, then either Mathieu van der Poel (Flanders + Roubaix) or
Remco Evenepoel. The latter won time trials at both
Olympic Games and World Championships, but which result stood out the most? His Olympic gold on road. The race from Paris wrote many stories and José De Cauwer looks back at one of the playful ones.
In a career filled with races, he has seen, heard or experienced everything. But what José De Cauwer experienced in Paris was unique, he confides at Spora: "They were very important for Belgium. And of course that image of Remco at the Eiffel Tower... I'll tell you something I've never actually told you before," he continues with a wink.
