British Cycling has confirmed the routes for this year’s championships, with Ceredigion hosting for a second consecutive year between 25 and 28 June. A new time trial course at Lampeter is the principal change; the circuit and road races revisit the same Aberystwyth roads used in 2025 — a road race that, on closer inspection, is harder than the headline figures suggest.
On Thursday morning (26 June) the Lloyds National Road Championships will burst into life with the national time trial championships on a course that threads the postcard-pretty Aeron valley and then kicks every rider in the ribs on the brutal ramp of Rhiw Goch. The loop runs anticlockwise, starts in the hamlet of Ffos-y-Ffin and drops back to the small coastal town of Aberaeron.
The 2025 Lloyds Tour of Britain Women, set to take place from 5 to 8 June, covers 423.6 kilometres across four diverse stages.
