Laurens De Plus was of the most prominent guest on the first edition of the R.EV Ride, Remco Evenepoel's training ride with his supporters. The INEOS Grenadiers rider had an excellent Giro and after well-deserved break, is starting his build up towards second part of the season.
"Remco had asked me to ride along," said De Plus in a quick interview for Sporza. "And I had a 5-hour workout on my schedule, so it worked out well." De Plus had to let go of Evenepoel's wheel when he continued on the Muur van Geraardsbergen.
It is no coincidence that De Plus was present in Schepdaal and the surrounding area. "Remco and I live 10 kilometers apart. When he is not abroad, we regularly train together around Geraardsbergen or drink a coffee together."

- Nonsense Mistermaumau. Tom has noticeably more character and personality than Mathieu. Look at the photograph with this article - when was the last time you saw Mathieu crack a smile like that?RupertBear17-12-2024
- Get over yourself! Tom is fine, he's quite a character in his way - he's got a great sense of humour for a start. Watch him and Matt Stephens do one of their cafe rides, they're both a hoot. I don't mind Mathieu, but he's a bit of a cold fish in case you haven't noticed. You guys make me laugh, you get a unique rider like Tom appears on the scene and all you can do is bitch! By the way Senna, your use of a comma and then the lack of a space between words is usually an indicator of ASD. Now I'm being bitchy!RupertBear17-12-2024
- Whining isn’t a good look, Lance. Oh and doping or not, the GOAT is still Eddy Merckx imho - lance couldn’t t even come close when you compare resultsCrashjames16-12-2024
- * not taking anything away from the tireless sacrifices wout has made as a superstar. those are two extraordinary individuals.OCexile16-12-2024
- sadly true. mathieu is the bedrock AD was built on, and he’s always shouldered that role and always seen the bigger picture: took MUCH less money than he could have gotten while the team was growing, and has written them new book on what it means to be a completely selfless superstar, witness every ferocious leadout for jasper and what he did at MSR last year. yup, so far that’s not thomas.OCexile16-12-2024
