Remco Evenepoel and Mathieu van der Poel link up again for near 100km training ride in Spain
Cycling
Not for the first time, the time-trial world champion Remco Evenepoel and the dual discipline world champion, Mathieu van der Poel have been spotted training alongside one another.
Both have already had notable successes in 2024, van der Poel taking his 6th Cyclocross World Championship win in Tabor, whilst Evenepoel recently claimed overall victory at the Volta ao Algarve in Portugal.
Posting to his official Strava account, Evenepoel has shown off a 98.59km training ride, covered in just a touch over three hours in Calpe, Spain. Notably, with an image of Freddy Ovett riding alongside van der Poel.
The spring program of van der Poel is not yet fully known although the Dutchman have recently been seen posting some very impressive number whilst climbing the Coll de Rates. Evenepoel meanwhile will soon divert his attention towards Paris - Nice at the start of March.

- You continue to platform these two cheats. With that in mind I can no longer use your site. I know my leaving means little, but, sometimes you have to take a stand. See ya!DJ21-12-2024
- Look at what Froome’s won since his last TdF, stop denying there is still more than possible one outcome to the future.Mistermaumau21-12-2024

- Exactly. Remco won 3 WT races/stages last year compared to Pogocar's 19. Remco's single stage win in last years TdF earned him a meager 12 seconds over Pogocar who shellac'd him by 9 minutes in GC.Sweep21-12-2024
- Fortunately and as you point out, more than one strategy is possible and worth trying and I’m sure all concerned riders are well informed and counselled on this subject and don’t need such basic personal advice through media from an outsider.Mistermaumau21-12-2024
- The main SPOTY award is "decided" by public vote but the BBC "expert panel" decide who you can choose from, that choice has an equal split of genders and is focussed on the sports BBC show and a disabled athlete. Oh yea the ubiquitous "Pub Games" candidate there too, Darts and Snooker are not sports. The other awards are decided by the "Expert Panel" again it's about the sports BBC show, cycling has had it. Cav got his for his years and achievements in the sport, not just that 35th TDF win. Unless the BBC get access to Pro Cycling it will never feature "adequately" on SPOTYslappers6621-12-2024

- Avoiding him is a good strategy, you get more wins and then you can compete in the TDF relatively relaxed. Pit yourself against Pogi and not only there will be no wins, it will be considerable mental setbackabstractengineer21-12-2024
