I share some info about the upcoming Women's tour.
The Women’s tour professional cycle race will be whizzing through Oxfordshire on Saturday 11th June having previously been in Gloucestershire for stage 3 on 8th June.
Starting in Chipping Norton going through Hook Norton before a hill climb at Butchers hill onto Charlbury, Burford (with a hill climb) Carterton (for a sprint) and onto Wantage before finishing in the heart of the city of Oxford the route details can be seen here and the timings will be added shortly. Chipping Norton will also be hosting further cycling activities aimed at encouraging locals to get into cycling with people able to try electric bikes, disability bikes and a trail to test bike skills. It is hoped a ride will also leave the start after the riders to go onto Oxford to see the professional riders arrive. Both Burford and Charlbury are also holding festivals that weekend and Carterton is currently looking at how to maximise the opportunity so hopefully club members will get out to see the riders.
