🚴♂️ Fridays are for... racing! In just seven days the 2024 Lloyds Bank Tour of Britain Men will be calling in the East Midlands, so here are some of the best places to catch the action along the route. ⬇️ #TourOfBritain
From the 3rd to the 8th of September Great Britain's biggest event, the Tour of Britain, will be on the road. We take a look at the stage's profiles.
The race this year will only have six stages, but by no means does it mean it will be a less exciting edition. There will be several stars on the startlist and there will be an interesting mix of flat and hilly stages where they can chase results.

Stage 1: Kelso - Kelso, 182.8 kilometers
The race starts off with a stage starting and ending in the city of Kelso. It's a day for the sprinters but not with certainty as there will be a 2.7-kilometer long climb at 6% ending with just 24 kilometers to go where a lot can happen.
Stage 2: Darlington - Redcar, 152.7 kilometers
Stage 2 is another hilly day but this one with certainty more dangerous. From Darlingtson to Redcar there are 152 explosive kilometers with several short and sharp climbs throughout the day. The finale is not hard, but the amount of ascents provides plenty opportunities for attacks; or a reduced bunch sprint.
Stage 3: Sheffield - Barnsley, 166.5 kilometers
Stage 3 has a hard start in Sheffield where strong riders can go up the road. Even if not, a sprint is definitely no certain in the finale into Barnsley where there are several small ascents and a 400-meter long uphill ramp to the finish line that can be quite exciting.
Stage 4: Derby - Newark-on-Trent, 139.2 kilometers
Stage 4 is the first outright pure opportunity for the pure sprinters. The stage from Derby to Newark-on-Trent is quite short and doesn't include any meaningful obstacle.
Stage 5: Northampton - Northampton, 147.2 kilometers
The fifth day of racing is also one for the sprinters, starting and finishing in Northampton where the fastest finishers will have the spotlight in the finale.
Stage 6: Lowestoft - Felixstowe, 158.7 kilometers
The race ends in Felixstowe with another flat stage. The sprinters will be getting the final opportunity of the race here with little doubt, concluding another edition of the race.

- I think you overestimate scientific knowledge and for sure the spreading of it. There are huge numbers of people in similar situations, if there were an easy solution somebody would be making big money out of it. Nerve pain can have many complex origins or be due to complex combinations of reasons. Even if you discover a reason there is not always a solution. Migraines haven’t been solved either. I have had lower back/hip nerve pains on and off for over 30 years, no kind of doctor has ever found a way to reduce, prevent or solve the problem. It may just be that some people are born with nerves that are too short or get twisted out of position during certain movements.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
- Amazing ride by her and very promising for her future. On a side note, it’s a bit worrying all these wins riders have after emotional moments in their lives, someone will come up with emotional doping at some point. Maybe give them fake news just before a big race to get hormones pumping.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
