The 2024 season is almost here. For Team Visma | Lease a Bike, things will get underway at the Tour Down Under in Australia and for one of their number, Bart Lemmen an exciting debut approaches.
"I really like the first few months. Everyone is nice, and the team is gigantically professional on every level," says the 28-year-old, who has never before ridden at World Tour level, in conversation with the team's official website. "That suits me very well and gives me confidence for the future. In addition, I immediately felt welcome and really part of the team."
"I have neatly completed all the training sessions, and we have been working more and more intensively," Lemmen continues. "In Spain, I then made another nice step and connected all the dots. Last year I still had to work during this period; now I have had more time to train, and the training forms are different. I really like all this."
Just a couple of years ago, Lemmen was still an officer in the Air Force. Now, he's set to ride for the team that made history in 2023, winning all three Grand Tours. "During the stages, I will try to assist Milan Vader as much as possible in his classification ambitions, and my personal goals lie there too. I hope to be of value to Milan by supporting him well into the final. Apart from that, I'm also just really happy to make my debut for the team."

- 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
