🏁 31km: plucky attackers have kept things lively through much of today’s tough parcours, but the focus is likely to shift with two category-two climbs still to come. @Backstedt_Zoe currently heads the peloton. 🫡

Top 10 = top job for Jule Märkl! Her strongest UCI result to date at today’s wet & wild Konvert Kortrijk Koerse. 🤘

🏁 35km: the peloton is down to ~25 riders after a lumpy, twisty run through the Welsh terrain.

@consonni_chiara, @CUttrupLudwig, @SorayaPaladin & @Backstedt_Zoe are all in the group as the course flattens ahead of The Great Orme summit finish. 👌🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

@LucasAbad14 It wasn’t quite Generation’s day, but plenty to like along the way. Joëlle Messemer & Jule Märkl got stuck into the action, making an initial split in heavy rain. The race ultimately regrouped for a sprint, where Jule sprinted to 20th. 🤝

A damp & testing @TourofBritain day 2 finishing in the seaside fun-town of Blackpool, where highs & lows are very much part of the deal. 🇬🇧

6th for @consonni_chiara, with three more stages to head back up. 🎢

🇬🇧 STAGE 2❕

Four seasons & nearly 170km made for a tough opener, but the result was a strong one. Time to go again on a shorter, but equally rugged parcours. 🤛

Got to be happy with that! 🤝 @consonni_chiara comes flying out of that 9-day block in France, sprinting to 2nd after a relentless final 30km that saw the peloton repeatedly torn apart by attacks. 💥

@LucasAbad14 @Backstedt_Zoe @consonni_chiara @CUttrupLudwig @SorayaPaladin 🏁 21km: After passing through the line, there's no shortage of activity on the punchy final circuit. All six CANYON//SRAM riders are in the peloton. 🤝

🏁 44km: The course and weather have threatened serious action, with many moments of tension through crosswinds and tough climbs. Yet the peloton is still largely together, 50 secs behind a lone leader. One more cat 2 climb to come! 🇬🇧☁️
