"This winter, we’ve opted for a compact schedule of six races that fit well into my training plan. It will be a cyclocross season I approach purely out oꦚf love for the sport, but with modest ambitions," Va⛄n Aert explained.
"After my crash in the Vuelta ꧙and my knee injury, it’s essential to make the best use of the time I have to prepare for the road season. A few cyclocross races fit nicely into that plan, but the schedule is deliberately more limited than in previous years﷽."

"T🐽hat will be the first target to work toward, but I certainly won’t reach my highest level there," he made clear, hinting at higher ambitions⭕ in late January when he could clash with Van der Poel.
"There are two great races o♈n the calendar in Benidorm and Maasmechelen, where I expect to be in better condition. I’m incredibly excited to ge💝t back into the field and look forward to reconnecting with the fans,” Van Aert concluded.
