Tour of Britain 2023 Route stage 6: Southend-on-Sea - Harlow

Slideshow 1/3
Friday 8 September - At 146.2 kilometres, the 6th stage of the Tour of Britain travels on flat to rolling terrain from Southend-on-Sea to Harlow. A bunch sprint is the most likely outcome.
The riders clip into their pedals on Southend’s Western Esplanade, close to the pier, before the first 65 kilometres loop around the towns of Rochford, South Woodham Ferrers and Burnham-on-Crouch. The route continues in westerly direction just before Bradwell-on Sea.
Along the way to Harlow there is only one KOM climb to be overcome. It’s the 3rd category slope just past West-Hanningfield, Ship Road, merely 1.4 kilometres at 2.4% and tackled with 46 kilometres left to race. The rest of the route is gently undulating.
