One last ice cream before the show starts here in Pietra Ligure 🇮🇹 for the 2025 @uci_mtbworldseries Enduro! Bit of a wild rollercoaster to get to the start line this season, but we made it!! And showing up with a fresh-looking setup too! First and foremost, @alpinestars_cycling stealing the show with their crisp 2025 kits. The keen-eyed might’ve spotted it already: I swapped the trusty @santacruzbicycles Megatower for a Hightower this year. Not too many hours on her yet, but no doubt she’s a ripper! Still running my go-to grips and saddles from @ergonbike , and rolling smooth thanks to a fresh suspension setup with help from @soulride.mtb ! Not visible in this pic, but an essential part of the puzzle: @victus.sport keeping me fuelled with top-quality sports nutrition. Big thanks to @4peaks.nl for helping me get back fit and strong after the injury. And of course, @jonasdemuylder not just keeping the bike dialled, but making the stressful life of a racer a whole lot easier by always being a good mate. To complete the team: my friend @theunissen_thomas behind the lens, capturing memories and never failing to put a smile on my face! ———————————————————- 📸: @theunissen_thomas ———————————————————- @alpinestars_cycling @ergonbike @victus.sport @soulride.mtb @4peaks.nl @velosolutions_benelux ———————————————————- #enduromtb #enduroworldseries #santacruzbikes #alpinestars #alpinestarscycling #ergonbike #BeyondBetter #MyErgon #bikeporn #mtb #vtt #vttenduro #mtblife #ruts

It seems as though the Dutch ripper @manu_warnet enjoyed his time in Scotland. Captured by @innesgrahamphoto . 📸🔥💯 #alpinestarsprotects #alpinestars

Some consistency in Poland for round 2 of the @uci_mtbworldseries ! Very happy to come out 38th on the day with some hectic mid-race condition changes🌧️! Didn’t feel great with some lingering stomach issues and was over the moon to figure out I got my second best result ever regardless! Overall unbelievable experience coming to Poland! Great people, great trails, tasty food and some insane fans (dziękuję bardzo🙏🏼)! Truly hope we’re coming back soon! And oohh myyy, can’t thank @theunissen_thomas enough for capturing these memories. Full goosebumps watching these images back. As a racer usually don’t remember much from race day and not having these memories to re-life these race feelings in a few years would be truly heartbreaking 💔 ! ———————————————————- 🎥: @theunissen_thomas ———————————————————- @bike2b @alpinestars_cycling @ergonbike @velosolutions_benelux @soulride.mtb @crankbrothers ———————————————————- #endurotrailsbielskobiala #enduromtb #ridetobe #enduroworldseries #santacruzbikes #alpinestars #alpinestarscycling #bike2b #ergonbike #bikeporn #mtb #vtt #vttenduro #mtblife #ruts

A worthy shout-out to @4peaks.nl ! After last year’s crash, breaking both my arm and pelvis, it was a tight squeeze trying to get back into racing shape before the first World Cups. About two months out from round one, I got in touch with Arjen from @4peaks.nl and we set a simple goal: row with the paddles we had and make the absolute most of the time available. Since I was missing a lot of bike time and couldn’t fit in a proper training block due to a busy school schedule, the focus shifted to the gym. We tried to simulate enduro race loads with high-intensity sessions full of stability challenges and race-specific efforts. All resulting in a firing start to the season, including my best result ever at one of the most physical races of the year in Poland! Buzzing to team up again this off-season and excited to see what we can do with a full prep instead of just two months! ———————————————————- @4peaks.nl ———————————————————- #offseasonprep #mtbtraining #enduromtb #enduroworldseries #santacruzbikes #alpinestars #alpinestarscycling #MyErgon #vttenduro #mtblife

TB to a splendid day at @lafarm for the opening of their bike facilities!

Time for an off-season dump! Been having the best time jumping from project to project with the @wonko.be crew and squeezing the most out of every second of off-time 👌🏼 #pumptrack #dirtjumping #trailbuilding

@wonko.be builders rippin gravel bikes in Danemark 🇩🇰

Some race clips from WorldChamps in Aletsch 🌈🇨🇭! Missed a bit of that extra umpf this week, not the best recipe for such a physical, high altitude race. Still, happy to have fought it out and come away with 47th in the end! Hard to complain about racing bikes in a place like this! Big cheers to everyone filming and shouting on the sidelines 🙌 ———————————————————- @alpinestars_cycling @victus.sport @ergonbike @velosolutions_nederland @soulride.mtb @4peaks.nl ———————————————————- #uciworldchampionship #enduromtb #enduroworldseries #santacruzbikes #alpinestars #alpinestarscycling #ergonbike #BeyondBetter #MyErgon #mtb #vtt #vttenduro #mtblife #ruts
