I cannot wait any longer to announce that I have joined @LidlTrek as the Data Analyst of the team. This project is extremely exciting and I am privileged to be part of it!

I have always said that if I ever leave Belgium and move back to Spain, I would return by bike. Earlier this year I decided to resume my life further south and as a consequence, I recently embarked on a 10-day trip from Leuven to Mataró.

Four teams (LTK, TVL, UAD and TBV) have already won a stage in both Paris-Nice and Tirreno-Adriatico. Lidl-Trek has accumulated so far the most UCI points from stage results (321). Movistar is the WorldTeam with the least points so far.

Last week the points collected in the Juegos Panamericanos (October 2023) were taken into account for the 2024 Teams Rankings; this week they still appear on the rider's page but are not included in the sum. What's the final agreement @UCI_cycling?

In the latest update of the UCI rankings one can see that the points from the Juegos Panamericanos (and all races after Guangxi but before Jan 1st 2024) are again taken into account. It is in line with chapter 2.01.001 of the UCI Regulations.

Another finding: no points have been awarded for the General Classification of Vuelta a Andalucía. It would have been a huge points boost for Lotto Dstny (who would have accumulated 280 extra UCI points) or UAE Team Emirates.

A small introduction on how we gather, process and present data at @LidlTrek. It's an easy task when everyone at the team is so data-driven. racing.trekbikes.com/stories…

Jayco AlUla tends to be the team with the highest % of points collected in January (7.3% vs the average 2.5% for WorldTeams). In addition to their expected success in Australia, this year they have won two races in two days in Spain.

Stephen Williams has won the 2024 #TourDownUnder, becoming the first rider since Van der Poel in 2020 (Renewi Tour) to win a WorldTour stage race while racing for a ProTeam.

Mud (a lot) and duck beanies. No better way to start the year.

The collaboration officially started in September but during the months leading into it I already fully focused on the task at hand. That is the main reason of my absence.

Although I will mainly be working remotely and "in the shadow", this December training camp has allowed me to get immersed into the culture of Lidl-Trek. As someone new to this industry, I was blown away by the complexity of running a pro cycling team.

WKO5 or Golden Cheetah aggregate vast amounts of data and allow the user to analyze it in a visual way. I wanted to give it a try and create my own training tool, using my ride data. public.tableau.com/views/DYI…

I tried to combine performance metrics with geocodes. If you want to see how many watts I'm able to push (spoiler: not many) or where I have been riding over the last few months, follow the link and let me know what you think!

I only had to rely on an external tool to transform the .gpx files into .csv ones; the rest (performance metrics calculations and of course visuals development) was done on Tableau.

And as 'easy' as this, Astana Qazaqstan gets 450 UCI points.
