SweetSpot Group have announced that the 2020 edition of the Women’s Tour, scheduled for June 8-13, has been postponed owing to the current international uncertainty surrounding the spread of the coronavirus or COVID-19 virus.

The SweetSpot Group also organises the UK domestic Tour Series circuit race series, scheduled to take place across various dates in May, and have postponed those events as well as the UCI Women’s WorldTour stage race.
