PREVIEW | ZLM Tour 2024 stage 4 - Rune Herregodts must defend lead in tricky cobbled stage
Cycling
The ZLM Tour is scheduled from June 5th to 9th this year. Known as a crucial warm-up event before the Tour de France, this Dutch race offers ample chances for sprinters to compete for victories, setting the stage for their upcoming major goals. Here's a preview of the upcoming stage.
If there is a day to make differences outside of the time-trial, then certainly this is it. Stage 4 is the longest day of the race with 196 kilometers on the menu, but it also features two passages of the 2-kilometer long Hogerwaardpolder cobbled sector. The last one ends with 73 kilometers to go however, before a finale in Roosendaal.
Prediction ZLM Tour 2024 stage 4:
*** Casper van Uden
** Simon Dehairs, Gerben Thijssen
* Mike Teunissen, Giovanni Lonardi, Jakub Mareczko, Enrico Zanoncello, Max Kanter, Gleb Syritsa
Pick: Casper van Uden

- Interesting idea, probably need some more conditions like age in order to stop certain teams filling the rosters with fake development riders.Mistermaumau16-03-2025
- But it wouldn't be a terrible idea IF you were only allowed to put in a rider from development team for the last stage of the stage race. Extra experience for them, real racing, pro peloton and very unlikely they will make any actual differencevappaxbipmv16-03-2025
- You don't have domestique, Tom. It's a problem. Without Del Toro, for sure Ayuso would not be in front of you.

- He’s not unlike SK, people just don’t want to accept their decisionsMistermaumau16-03-2025
- Really happy for Matteo, especially despite not having much team support over the last couple of days. He's strong and in great form. He'll be a strong teammate for Jonas in the Tour. Also happy for Magnus—he's had a tough two years, and this is a well-earned reward for his dedication. Ineos have really come out fighting this year and I'm really liking this from them.Pedalmasher16-03-2025

- He has declined leadership though in the past? Lack of confidence? Hedging your bets works sometimes, at other times it is better to commit and go in big.Cyclingsbestfan16-03-2025
- Pidcock is starting sound like a more mature rider. It may be the media reports when he was at ineos skewing things, but he starting to sound like a defferent person.Cyclingsbestfan16-03-2025
