Mathieu van der Poel has made it a habit this year to give an in-depth glimpse into his social life every month via Instagram. The Dutchman has now done the same after September, in which he rode his last race kilometers of the 2025 season. Van der Poel focused on the Mountain Bike World Championships in Crans-Montana, but was unable to pull off another stunt there. After that, it was time for some relaxation: for Van der Poel, that means fries, but also âjustâ other sports.
We see him (of course) playing golf, but also tennis and running at Venice Beach in Los Angeles. VDP spent part of the month in the United States,
where he was able to combine the pleasures of a vacation with the practicalities of a few sponsor visits. He also left a few - literal - followers behind in the hills around Los Angeles.
He also makes a nod to the phenomenon of Septemberitis with a screenshot of his training files, which show the absence of the intended intervals. All in all, a great month through the eyes of MVDP!
