=In October 2020, Geschke signed with the Cofidis team as a mountain helper for team leader Guillaume Martin.
At the 2022 Tour de Romandie, Geschke initially rode in support of Ion Izagirre, but moved into overall contention, finishing as part of the lead group on the penultimate stage of the race in Zinal. He then finished second to Aleksandr Vlasov on the final stage, a 15.84-kilometre (9.84-mile) individual time trial from Aigle to Villars-sur-Ollon, moving up to third overall behind Vlasov and Gino Mäder. Prior to the Tour de France, Geschke finished third in the German National Road Race Championships. At his tenth Tour de France, Geschke wore a classification jersey at the race for the first time; after getting into the breakaway on stage 9, Geschke earned enough points to take the lead in the mountains classification, which was his goal for the stage. He also featured in the breakaways on stages 11, 14, and 16, before losing the jersey to Jonas Vingegaard after stage 17, after 9 days as mountains classification leader – a record for a German rider.
Following the end of the 2024 season, Geschke announced his retirement from the sport after 16 years, stating that “For me, the feeling is that the sport got less fun and there’s less fun between the riders”.
Personal life
The son of former track cyclist Jürgen Geschke, Simon Geschke has been a vegan since 2016.
