Kevin De Weert has ended his cycling career as of today. The 33-year-old climber from Belgium says goodbye to the team on his birthday. De Weert rode his last race in Team LottoNL-Jumbo’s yellow and black colours on Saturday 23rd of May during the World Ports Classic.

"After having worked hard for a year and a half, I’ve come to the conclusion that I cannot get back into my old shape. For this reason, I’ve decided in proper consultation with the team to quit cycling on a professional level as of today. I’m happy with the decision, even though it comes earlier than planned. I’m unsure what my future will look like, but I’m looking forward to new challenges within this sport,” says a relieved Kevin De Weert.

"We regret Kevin De Weert’s departure. This was not our expectation when we started the collaboration. On the other hand, we support him and wish Kevin all the best,” says Richard Plugge, Managing Director.
