Due to heavy snowfalls in Northern and Central Europe these past few days, the Dutch opening classic Ster van Zwolle, originally planned to take place on Saturday, March 4, had to be cancelled. Race organiser Jan van Ommen had to abandon the event as police forces could not guarantee the safety of the riders.
It is the second time in a row that the race cannot take place - last year, bad weather conditions also prevented the Ster van Zwolle from happening. The race organiser will now ask the Dutch Cycling Federation KNWU for a new date.
