CyclingThursday, 14 November 2024 at 22:24
Remco Evenepoel has a big year ahead of him in 2025 as looks to step up even further and reach the level of the likes of Jonas Vingegaard and Tadej Pogacar at the Tour de France. Before he steps up preparation though, the Belgian has had to go under the knife.
The double Olympic champion has had to undergo dental surgery in order to have his wisdom teeth pulled. As seen in the most recent post to his official TikTok account though, the Soudal - Quick-Step leader has not lost any of his energy following the surgery although Evenepoel's face is still slightly swollen. Completing a viral TikTok challenge, the Belgian jumps and dances around full of enthusiasm in celebration.
As mentioned, the Tour de France is yet again set to be the biggest goal of the Belgian in 2025 after cracking the final podium on his debut earlier this year. If he's to be able to take the Maillot Jaune to Paris though, a big winter of preparation is needed.

- Why? He is past his "sell by "date. Just like Froome.

- The other commenters are exactly right - different eras. It does help that bikes now have lower gears without sacrificing higher ones. Merckx rode up mountain passes with a 5 speed cluster- and I doubt he had anything less than a 42x24. See how exhausted you'd be going up Mont Ventoux with that, lol.ScottG14-11-2024
- Times have changed, Bart Wellens, and it's only natural and makes total sense that riders like Wout van Aert and Mathieu van der Poel's primary focus is on their road careers. It has absolutely nothing to do with doing a 'disservice' to the UCI.
santiagobenites14-11-2024 - Bad for us, good for them, indifferent for newcomers. When a bank offers you 50 to open an account is that good or bad? Good for you, bad for existing clients paying for it who received nothing when they joined, indifferent for future new clients who might get 100.Mistermaumau14-11-2024
- Why don’t you go copy-paste from a reliable scientific site instead of accepting the first info Google provides which is by no means scientific. Like I said before differently, EVERYTHING is poisonous if you replace the Oxygen you need with it. Breathing pure Oxygen will kill most of us in almost every situation (hospital deliver pure oxygen but dilute with air before inhalation so just enrich) fighter pilots and astronauts get pure oxygen because there is almost none in the atmosphere but as the pressure is far lower the concentration in the lungs remains similar to the N78/O21 known as air). nitrogen/oxygen instead of 80/20 (basically air) will likely kill you too. Nitrogen is completely neutral and unabsorbed yet you die from 100% so is it poisonous, no. It’s the wrong DOSE that is poisoning!Mistermaumau14-11-2024
