BinckBank Tour Stage 4, Houffalize 15 AUGUST 2019 More famous as a rendezvous in Liège-Bastogne-Liège, the Côte de Saint-Roche hosts the BinckBank peloton. The famous wall-like climb was covered three times during the stage and on the final ascent, Laurens De Plus attacked and drew with him Tim Wellens and young talent Marc Hirschi. The latter two contested a close-fought sprint, with Wellens ultimately edging the young Swiss rider, who opened up his sprint far too early. De Plus, distanced slightly in the final, took ample retribution three days later when he won the GC, which was also his first pro win. Image: Getty Images
