Stage 3 Tour of Britain Women

07.06

Stage 3 marks the first of two days in Scotland. Over 148.7 kilometres, riders face more than 2,100 metres of climbing, including multiple ascents of Scott’s View (2.5km at 2.5%), Dingleton (2.5km at 6%) and Dunion Hill (3km at 5.4%). It’s a rolling and unpredictable day, likely too tough for the pure sprinters and ideal for a breakaway or late attack. A reduced bunch sprint is possible — but don’t be surprised if an outsider steals the spotlight in Kelso.
