The Team

Jef Beneens and Toon Hannes are the strong pillars who take care of the organisational side: Jef takes care of most of the sponsor contacts and drives the support vehicle during the Tour, Toon, as project manager, keeps everything on track.


Goedele is also supported along the way by leaders on bikes and a whole care team: a mechanic, a carer, a cook, ...  a punishing team of strong volunteers who provide perfect support within their own speciality.


The preparation is supported by top professionals from Belgian cycling:

  • coach Kristof de Kegel has been providing Goedele's training schedules for 5 years
  • sports dietician Jana Capmhens from Energy Lab and Intermarché Circus Wanty will provide the nutrition plan
  • David Bombeke / REV supports the preparation in terms of grooming and strength.


In addition:

  • Dr Marianne Stevens is a regular oncologist
  • Prof Roger van Riet successfully operated on Goedele's elbow fracture,
  • Caroline Smits of Care In Motion provides lymphatic drainage and
  • Jo Verstuyft of pharmacy Puursfarma is always on hand, whether it's cancer care, sports nutrition or other concerns.
