Ten amazing pictures of huge cycling event across Glasgow

City centre roads closed for the Lloyds Tour of Britain Women as a huge crowd gathered to watch.

Following a thrilling race, Ally Wollaston sealed the title by the narrowest of margins ahead of Cat Ferguson.

Speaking on her victory, she said: “I am feeling very overwhelmed, it is so exciting and it really couldn’t have gone any better for me today. I was lucky that there were a lot of seconds up for grabs.

"The plan was to get as many seconds as I could, and unfortunately, Cat was on my wheel for every single one, so it really came down to the last sprint.

“The team were so amazing today, I really couldn’t have done it without them. I’m just so grateful for the work that they did. I couldn’t be happier in this team, so I am very grateful for the support I have received over the last four days.

“Mum and Dad will be a bit shocked, I imagine. I called them last night and said that the plan was to go for all three bonus sprints, and I said Cat will probably be thinking the same thing! I think they will be super proud back home.”

Here are ten wonderful pictures of the event.
