Tour of Britain Women Overview
British Cycling has taken over the newly-named 2024 Tour of Britain Women held from June 6-9, 2024.
SweetSpot, the former organisers of what was 'The Women's Tour' entered liquidation after financial difficulty and a trail of debts. Although it was initially unclear whether the event would be held in 2024, it was later confirmed under the organisation of British Cycling but has been reduced from six days to four.
The Women's Tour began in 2014 and has been part of the Women's WorldTour since 2016. However, the event was cancelled in 2020 and postponed until later in the year in 2021.
The race held all six stages in 2022, and the last overall winner was Elisa Longo Borghini.
The Women's Tour was cancelled in 2023 due to increased running costs and a lack of sponsorship.
