Ahead of his racing return at next week's Tour de Suisse, world champion Remco Evenepoel has logged a huge 'personalised Liège-Bastogne-Liège' training ride.

The Belgian is preparing to mount a defence of his national time trial title later this month and then a defence of his world title in August, with Switzerland the first step towards those goals after his abandon of the Giro d'Italia.
