C’est Bjorn Larson du team (HoloweskoCitadel pbHincapie) qui a remporté la 4ème étape à Ballyvaughan dans le Comté de Clare. Au terme des 110 km, il devance en solitaire ces compagnons d’échappés le Britannique Etienne Georgi (Giant Halo Team) et l’Irlandais Jake Gray.
Tous faisaient parti d’un groupe de 5 coureurs avec Cole Davis et Gage Hecht. Ils vont prendre plus d’une minute d’avance sur le peloton emmené par les hommes de la NPRT avec Alexis Roche très combatif sur cette étape aux côtés de son leader Ben Walsh.
Mais dans le final, Larson s’envole seul pour l’emporte en costaud.
Le général reste sur les épaules de Charlie Meredith (Giant Halo) avec un temps égal à celui de son coéquipier Matthew Cox. Mais rien n’est joué quand on constate que les 10 premiers de ce classement se tiennent sous 30 sec.
