R.EV Ride
The second edition of the Remco Evenepoel Ride will take place on Saturday 10 August. Schepdaal, Remco’s home village, is once again the start and finish location. After his first Tour de France and the Paris Olympic Games, Remco wants to ride a tour of his Belgian training roads among his supporters again.
Participants can choose from four distances: 60 km, 85 km, 130 km or 170 km crossing the Pajottenland, the Flemish Ardennes and le Pays des Collines.
From 13:00, the real Fanday can begin on the premises of the Castle of Schepdaal.
The R.EV Brussels Cycling Academy will offer numerous activities for young people. Among other things, you can participate in “The Golden KM”, a short time trial of about 1 km on a mountain bike. Prizes will be provided for the fastest riders.
There will also be the necessary entertainment: DJ sets, food trucks, a bar,….
After his Ride, Remco himself will join to celebrate his fantastic summer and share a fun moment with all fans present.
In short, a beautiful day to look forward to! Go ahead and put a pin in your calendar!
Discover The Course
From Schepdaal Castle, explore a course full of familiar roads for Remco.
The 60 km course is an introduction to Remco’s first training roads. Discover the Pajottenland on this morning ride in a beautiful region featuring three climbs. After a fun and relaxed tour you will return to the starting point.
The 85 km course ups the challenge with passages on the Muur van Geraardsbergen, Bosberg and Congoberg. In addition to these well known spring classics climbs, there are four more climbs on the menu.
The 130 km course contains 12 climbs, or roughly one climb per 10 km! This route immerses you in the Pays des Collines, a region close to Remco’s heart, without having to ride all the way to the French border. Via Flobecq and Ellezelles you will head to familiar terrain for cyclists with challenging ascents of over 10% in a glorious, undulating landscape.
The 170 km course is Remco’s ultimate course! It is his favourite training route when he is in belgium, from his home in Schepdaal to the French border. Brace yourself to climb several “walls” with passages of around 15% (Bourliquet and Mont de l’Enclus). On the ascent of the southern side of the Hotond you will even face peaks of 18%. This is the perfect route for experienced cycling tourists who want to explore our champion’s favourite roads.

Recycling Campaign
In Belgium, three million mobile phones lie forgotten in a drawer, and yet 90% of the materials in mobile phones can be recycled (copper, cobalt, silver, gold, etc.). In 2024, Proximus wants to collect no fewer than 140,000 devices and recycle them thanks to the collaboration with Brainscape. Together we prevent new extraction of raw materials in developing countries.
A kind call to all cycling fans to put their greenest foot forward and participate in the recycling campaign! All Proximus Cycling Challenges listed in the calendar and 6 tours of the Teamleader Crm Classics Tour are participating in the campaign. Everyone who recycles will be rewarded. How? Find out by clicking on the button below.

Health
The organiser advises everyone to avoid strenuous exercise for which you are not physically prepared. Make sensible choices about the distance you want to cover and/or the pace you want to set for your body.
If you want to perform sports at a high intensity, it is best to have yourself checked annually by a (sports) doctor. It is not compulsory to provide medical certificates.
It is up to the athletes to decide how to deal with the information provided during a medical check-up. The organiser bears no responsibility in this respect.
Do you feel ill, have a cough, sneeze, or fever? Given the current health situation, we advise you to stay at home and not come.
Respect the highway code and cycle cleanly
The organisers and police will ensure that the highway code is respected. Violations will be sanctioned. So as not to jeopardise the event’s survival, we ask expressly that you respect the traffic regulations, do not litter, and do not urinate in public. We count on the sportsmanship of all participants.
