The Nottingham Post reported that the Tour of Britain was returning to Notts this year with a stage, on Saturday Sept 8, starting in West Bridgford and finishing in Mansfield. https://www.nottinghampost.com/news/local-news/tour-britain-coming-back-area-1333314#r3z-addoor
The official ToB website says the Stage on Sept 8 is Aberdare to Bath. The whole route doesn't come anywhere near Notts! https://tour-of-britain.com/
Can we believe what we read in newspapers?
Looks a spoofy site to me. Shows 2016 route. Try tourofbritain.co.uk
Thanks Tom, that explains it!
So we may well have it back in Nottingham.
