The world road race champion, Lotte Kopecky, took a dominant overall victory in the reborn Tour of Britain Women, reinforcing her status as the rider to beat in the road race at the Olympic Games.
The 28-year-old Belgian, riding for SD Worx-Protime, took stage wins in Llandudno and Wrexham and never looked under threat throughout the four-day race, which began in Welshpool and ended on Sunday afternoon in Leigh, Greater Manchester.
