CyclingWednesday, 24 April 2024 at 10:58
The Tour of Turkey will be held from April 21st to 28th, spanning one of the longest stage-races in the cycling calendar and traversing a substantial part of the country. This race offers ample opportunities for riders of diverse specialties. Here's a preview of the upcoming event.
As we read on CyclingUpToDate, stage 4 begins with a climb right from the start in Marmaris which sets the tone for the day. Into Bodrum, it's a day that is expected to end in a sprint but not between all riders, as a few ascents and the uphill drag to the line will limit the amount of riders capable of fighting for victory.
Stage 4: Marmaris - Bodrum, 138.5 kilometers
Prediction Tour of Turkey 2024 stage 4:
*** Max Kanter, Danny van Poppel
** Giovanni Lonardi, Fabio Jakobsen
* Enrico Zanoncello, Iuri Leitão, Henri Uhlig, Simon Dehairs, Sasha Weemaes, Tobias Lund Andresen, Sam Welsford, David Gonzalez

- 3 youngsters out in front and 10 people within 2 minutes. Not very long ago, all it took to gain 2 minutes on every other rider was a big effort in a mountain stage but that doesn’t seem to happen anymore.Mistermaumau18-05-2025

- Roads outside the capital are some of the best in the world, tarmac smooth as track. Beautiful tea-plantation landscapes, perfect weather, delicious cheap fruit. People are friendly but « sticky » with cyclists. Truck and bus drivers are criminal, you’ll experience feeling like Bernal anywhere busy. Globally not cheap. Genocide museum is peaceful but heavy. Lake Kivu is amazing (also to swim in) but has some dark « mysteries » Take a dirty bike, they’ll clean (chain too) & oil it for 1$. If you have a spare old working bike, consider saving on its return ticket and helping local cycling/triathlon associations, they’re athletes have nothing and they’ll find a way to keep it alive with whatever means, like connecting an old spoke to any broken one to retighten a wheel. Tourist attractions are expensive but pay for useful activities (protecting wildlife mainly). Plastic bags are banned, theft is very badly frowned upon so unlikely, service is generally bad but it helps if you explain what you expect. Go do it, it’s a great experience (if you wait a few more years, cycling friend of mine is building rental homes at the lake and will be organising bike tours).Mistermaumau18-05-2025
- Achilles heal lol. He has more mountain bike results than most full time mountain bikers will ever have.mij18-05-2025
- Primoz certainly had some sh*t luck today, and I feel badly for him, but that's racing. Now we're left an unexpected leaderboard, and I think that it's going to make the rest of this Giro very interesting to watch.

- Wout really needed this win. He needed it much more than Isaac did, and Isaac has the 'consolation' prize of leading the Giro now with a decent margin, so it was a win-win situation.santiagobenites18-05-2025
- He knows how to answer a tricky question that may get him into trouble with his teammates. All the best to him. May he win this GT!
