Preview stage 7. From the 3rd to 10th of September the Tour of Britain takes place, one of the biggest races in the closing shots of the road season, the eight stages throughout British roads serve as preparation for the late-season classics but together they make for a very prestigious race.

On stage 7 the race finally enters the hilly terrain. From Tewkesbury to Gloucester the riders find a few ascents. Towards the end the riders find a 1.7-kilometer climb at 8.7% and a 2.2-kilometer ascent at 5.7%, two spots where the peloton will be reduced, it can be a key day for the overall classification, but a reduced sprint is not to be discounted.

Stage 7: Tewkesbury - Gloucester, 171.2 kilometers
