Biography
Born in
His first notable result among the elite riders came in 1996 when he won the Dutch national title behind the derny.[7] It would take him four more years to win another national title. This time he won the madison title alongside his partner Robert Slippens.[8] The year 2000 turned out to be his final breakthrough year. Besides his second national title he also won a silver medal behind the derny and two bronze medals at the points race and 50-kilometre (31-mile) time trial.[9] Later that year Stam and Slippens represented the Netherlands at the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney where they took the 8th spot.[10]
In 2001 Stam and Slippens had their first top three ranking during a Six-day cycling event, finishing third in Amsterdam.[11] A year later they promoted their ranking into a second place.[12] That same year they became the European Champions at the Madison beating Bruno Risi and Kurt Betschart for the gold.[13] He also won another national silver medal at the points race.[14] Their first Six-day racing win Stam and Slippens also achieved in Amsterdam, where they again beat Risi and Betschart in 2003.[15] In addition they also won the Six-day cycling event of Bremen and finished second in Moscow and Ghent.[9] They were unable to successfully defend their European title in madison, but their second place behind Andreas Kappes and Andreas Beikirch was good enough for a silver medal.[16]
They qualified themselves for the World Championships in 2004 and won the bronze medal.
In 2008 Stam started in the Six-day event of Rotterdam again together with Slippens, but he had to withdraw after one day. Because Leif Lampater's teammate Andreas Beikirch also got injured Stam and Lampater were riding together starting at day 2 of the event, chasing the leading three teams by 2 laps.[21] Eventually they won the event with a lap in advantage of the rest of the pack.[22]
In 2010 Stam joined the
