  3. South Yorkshire to Host 2024 Lloyds Bank Tour of Britain Men Stage

South Yorkshire to Host 2024 Lloyds Bank Tour of Britain Men Stage

The Lloyds Bank Tour of Britain Men will return to Rotherham for the first time in almost 20 years this September, as South Yorkshire gears up to hold the third stage of Britain’s national Tour.

Stage three of the race, on Thursday 5 September, will head from Sheffield to Barnsley, taking in Rotherham and Doncaster during the route. The race last came to South Yorkshire in 2007 when a stage started from Rother Valley Country Park.

Deputy Leader and Cabinet Member for Social Inclusion & Neighbourhood Working, Cllr Dave Sheppard, said: “The Tour of Britain travelling through Rotherham during this south Yorkshire Stage is a fantastic opportunity for the borough, to showcase some of our beautiful scenery, provide a boost to cycling - whether as a leisure activity, as a sustainable mode of transport or as a competitive sport - and of course to benefit businesses in the area. We know our communities and schools will look forward to giving the teams and spectators a warm Rotherham welcome.”

More details of the Lloyds Bank Tour of Britain Men, including the stage three route map, detailed stage timings, and competing teams will be announced in the coming weeks.
