The team’s strong lineup includes Damien Howson, who secured a podium finish in the final General Classification (GC) last year, and local star Mark Donovan, who claimed 5th overall and won the Best British Rider award.

The 2024 Tour of Britain kicks off on Tuesday, September 3rd, in Kelso, Scotland, featuring six challenging stages before concluding in Felixstowe on Sunday, September 8th. The first two stages are expected to be among the toughest in the race’s history, with over 5,000 meters of elevation gain on rugged terrain. As the race heads south towards the Suffolk coast, sprinters will have their opportunities to shine.

Leading the team’s GC ambitions are Brit Mark Donovan and Australian Damien Howson, both eager to build on their impressive performances in last year’s race.

“I’m really looking forward to getting back to racing. The second part of the season hasn’t gone entirely to plan due to an injury setback, but I’ve worked hard over the past six weeks to recover. My form is still a bit uncertain, but I’m excited to see what I’m capable of,” said Damien Howson. “This year’s Tour of Britain may have two fewer stages than in 2023, but they promise to be tough days. There doesn’t seem to be a standout GC day, but I believe we’ll see some aggressive racing, which will make for an attacking and open race. With the team we have, we can aim for a win every day while also putting our best foot forward in the GC. I’d love to repeat last year’s podium finish.”
