  • Gerardus Johannes Willibrordus „Gerrit“ van Beek (* 1. November 1923 in Volendam; † 15. März 1951 in Berlin) war ein niederländischer Radsportler. Gerard van Beek begann seine Radsportlaufbahn im Jahre 1943 als Amateur und gewann in den Nachkriegsjahren 18 Straßenrennen. 1947 errang er bei den Straßen-Weltmeisterschaften in Reims die Bronzemedaille im Straßenrennen. Im selben Jahr wurde er niederländischer Meister im Mannschaftszeitfahren und gewann die Ronde van Noord-Holland. In der Folge startete van Beek bei etlichen Sechstagerennen, wie etwa in New York, Washington und München, wo er gemeinsam mit Rang drei belegte. 1948 sowie 1949 entschied er jeweils eine Etappe der Niederlande-Rundfahrt für sich. Er war einer von vier Radrennfahrern – van Beek, , Gerrit Voorting und –, die in den ersten Nachkriegsjahren das Renngeschehen in den Niederlanden dominierten und die deshalb die vier Musketiere genannt wurden. Im März 1951 nahm Gerard van Beek gemeinsam mit Arie Vooren am 34. Berliner Sechstagerennen in der Sporthalle am Funkturm teil. In der dritten Nacht stürzte er und musste mit schweren Schädelverletzungen in das Krankenhaus Westend eingeliefert werden. Sein Kollege und Freund Arie erlitt einen schweren Schock. Van Beek starb einige Tage später. (de)
  • Gerard van Beek (1 November 1923 — 15 March 1951) was a Dutch road cyclist. He won the bronze medal in the amateurs road race at the 1947 UCI Road World Championships. In 1948 and 1949 he won the final stage in the Ronde van Nederland. Van Beek grew up in Oostzaan, and road for the local cycling team D.T.S., but did not participate in races for a while, because he did not dare to, as he said later. When he did start racing he was an immediate success, and won the Ronde of Noord-Holland in 1947, and a road race from Amsterdam to Arnhem and back. In that year's world championship, in Reims, he finished third, behind two Italian racers. Van Beek became professional in 1947, after winning the bronze medal as an amateur at the 1947 UCI Road World Championships. He was selected for the 1948 Tour de France and was chosen as a substitute for the 1948 UCI Road World Championships, for professionals. In 1948 and 1949 he won the final stage in the Ronde van Nederland, and in 1949 he lost in the final of the Dutch championship to Wim van Est, after defeating Gerrit Schulte in the semi-final. After that, he became more of a track racer. In 1950 he finished third in the 50k race at the Dutch championships, and did couple races, particularly in Germany, with Cor Bakker and with Arie Vooren. On 15 March 1951 he had a flat tire and crashed during a six-day race in Berlin, and died later in the hospital. Van Beek was well known in his community as a progressive working-class person, participating in local pacifist groups; he was one of the first signatories for a remembrance of the February strike.
