Carrick-on-Suir rider Sam Bennett recorded another win on stage three of the Four Days of Dunkirk yesterday (Thursday).
On the previous day he recorded his first win since last July.
He defended the pink jersey of overall leader in style, easily winning the sprint into Bouchain.
He was positioned perfectly by his Decathlon Ag2r La Mondiale team, then blasted past former teammate Pascal Ackermann (Israel Premier Tech) inside the final 100 metres, holding off Milan Fretin (Cofidis) to win by almost a bike length.
