Stage Two: Hartlepool to Saltburn-by-the-Sea

Stage Overview

The Tees Valley plays host to Stage Two of the Lloyds Tour of Britain Women, with the race going from Hartlepool to Saltburn-by-the-Sea on Friday 6 June.

Having successfully hosted the Lloyds Tour of Britain Men on two occasions in recent years, including in September 2024 when Stevie Williams won along the seafront in Redcar, this year it is the turn of the world’s top women cyclists.

Starting from Hartlepool Marina, close to the National Museum of the Royal Navy Hartlepool, riders will head through the Tees Valley before tackling the famous hairpins of the 15% coastal climb of Saltburn Bank twice, the second time for the finish of the stage.

The 300-metre climb up from the sea of Saltburn Bank in Saltburn-by-the-Sea will be familiar to British riders in the peloton, as the infamous ascent formed a key part of the route at the Lloyds National Road Race Championships in 2023 and 2024, won on both occasions by Pfeiffer Georgi.

Check back soon for more details of the route of stage two of the Lloyds Tour of Britain Women.
