Q36.5 Pro Cycling Team will welcome Sjoerd Bax on a two-year deal beginning in 2025. The Dutch all-rounder brings a wealth of experience and a strong track record of results from before joining the UAE super team in 2023. In his new team, he'd like to recall his best results such as the victory at Coppa Agostoni (1.1) two years ago.
"I’m really happy to join the team! For me, it looks like a really interesting project and the perfect team to take the next step in my career. In the last two years, I worked diligently for UAE Team Emirates in support of teammates, and instead of chasing the breakaway, I now want to be in the breakaway myself or be in the final myself," he declares ambitiously.

Before joining UAE, Bax had couple strong years racing for Alpecin-Deceuninck and before 2022 he spent many years at the Dutch conti team Metec. The 28-year-old spent the last two years working for his star teammates but now that he's seen the top of the cycling world, he'd like to take up his own chances again.
"I’ve won some races in the past, and I want to have this feeling back because it’s the best there is. I want to be in the finals and fight for the win again and to just have fun on the bike," said Sjoerd Bax.
