Arvid de Kleijn sprints to victory on stage 3 of the ZLM Tour

Arvid de Kleijn has taken the victory on stage 3 of the 2023 ZLM Tour, rocketing his way to the win from a sprint finish in Roosendaal.

Just over 200 meters of climbing on this day, stage 3 of the ZLM Tour will feature a small cobbled section which will be the most noteworthy moment of the day. Another sprint is expected in Roosendaal.

After two of a three-man breakaway was successfully reeled in by the peloton, Jan-Willem van Schip continued to battle hard as a lone leader.

The chase behind was effected by a heavy crash with 16km to go as he stayed around 20 seconds in front.

With 5km to go he remained, dangling in front of the bunch but it seemed it was a done deal and with 2.5km left.

Attention then turned to the sprint finish. Into the final kilometre and it was Team DSM on the front.

Jakub Mareczko was the man to lead out the sprint but he was unable to make it back-to-back wins with Arvid de Kleijn prevailing.
