Monument glory? Tom Pidcock confirms ambitious spring campaign including Milano-Sanremo, Strade Bianche and Liege-Bastogne-Liege
Cycling
Tom Pidcock has made an impressive start to his time at Q36.5 Pro Cycling Team, settling in well after leaving the INEOS Grenadiers over the winter. The British rider opted to skip the cyclocross season this winter, and so far, that decision appears to be paying off as he gears up for a demanding spring campaign.
Pidcock already won multiple stages and the GC at the AlUla Tour, his first race for his new team. Pidcock’s next race will be the Vuelta a Andalucia, beginning on February 19th, and from there, he will shift focus to the classics, starting with Omloop Het Nieuwsblad in early March, before heading to Strade Bianche, a race that he won back in 2023.
As part of his preparation for the Ardennes, Pidcock will race Tirreno-Adriatico and go for glory at Milano-Sanremo, two more prestigious events that will provide him with further opportunities to succeed ahead of his title defence at Amstel Gold Race.
Following Amstel Gold, Pidcock will also line up for La Flèche Wallonne and Liège-Bastogne-Liège, two races where he will aim to challenge the best in the world once again.
Looking further ahead, Pidcock has already confirmed that he will skip the 2025 Tour de France. Pidcock has not had the best of luck at the Tour in recent years, and at both the 2023 and 2024 editions of the race his relationship with INEOS unravelled there. Perhaps a year without the Tour is for the best.
With a balanced mix of one-day classics and stage races on his schedule, Pidcock’s 2025 season is shaping up to be an exciting one. His strong start with Q36.5 Pro Cycling Team suggests that he is well-positioned for success as he embarks on his ambitious spring campaign, lets hope for Pidcock that this is the start of a brilliant partnership.

- F you. You were the figurehead and the leader by default and force when you raced but you continued to cheat and beat down opponents so saying now that others cheated is total bs and a copout. Go crawl in a cave and stay there. But first write checks to all those you screwed over a-hole.

- Great race! Tadej did everything he could to win but MVP showed why he's so great in the classics. There were no losers on the final podium.awp22-03-2025
- To me he lost the race when he wasn’t able to drop Van der Poel on either of the climbs. He will never beat him in a sprint. If the two go to the line together, Tadej loses.mij22-03-2025
- Sadly he lost the race when he let VDP get a small gap in the final 200 meters - maybe if he works on sprint tactics ? Similar thing happened at FlandersCrashjames22-03-2025
- It's better to win Tour de France than any race. For sure Pogi, losing or podium is not on his. He's face wanting to destroy ALL but MVDP is such a great champion 👏
