In Memoriam Bjorg Lambrecht Cette 4ème étape, avec l'arrivée à Beille, aura une symbolique toute particulière car ce sera l'étape sur laquelle le vainqueur se verra décerné le Trophée Bjorg Lambrecht qui avait remporté l'étape à l'arrivée de ce même Plateau de Beille en 2017.

Seven years after Bjorg Lambrecht won on the Plateau de Beille at the 2017 Ronde de l’Isard, the Belgian rider will be remembered on Saturday, as the summit finish is revisited on the penultimate stage of this year’s edition of the race. The winner of the stage will be presented with a trophy that will be named the Trophée Bjorg Lambrecht.
A crash at the 2019 Tour de Pologne tragically took the life of the talented young rider, as he passed away at the age of just 22 years old. He was recognised as one of the best up-and-coming prospects in the WorldTour, having finished second in the U23 road race at the World Championships in 2018.
He had also achieved several other strong results in the U23 ranks, as he finished second overall at the Tour de l’Avenir in 2017 behind Egan Bernal, before stepping up to the professional peloton the following season. Two months before he passed away, Lambrecht won the youth classification at the Critérium du Dauphiné, which was further proof of the talent that he was.

- I think you overestimate scientific knowledge and for sure the spreading of it. There are huge numbers of people in similar situations, if there were an easy solution somebody would be making big money out of it. Nerve pain can have many complex origins or be due to complex combinations of reasons. Even if you discover a reason there is not always a solution. Migraines haven’t been solved either. I have had lower back/hip nerve pains on and off for over 30 years, no kind of doctor has ever found a way to reduce, prevent or solve the problem. It may just be that some people are born with nerves that are too short or get twisted out of position during certain movements.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
- Amazing ride by her and very promising for her future. On a side note, it’s a bit worrying all these wins riders have after emotional moments in their lives, someone will come up with emotional doping at some point. Maybe give them fake news just before a big race to get hormones pumping.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
