The stage 2 course will make its way through a scenic municipality called Villafruela, a rural area in Burgos, Castile and León, nestled in the north of Spain. It will lead you over gently rolling sepia grasslands and finally over the small Arlanza river to the finish in Tordómar, an area dominated by cultivated fields of cereal and ochre-coloured meadows set against an azure sky. It’s the first possible bunch sprint where there will be an opportunity to show who is in form, go for the win, and grab points for the Škoda Green Jersey competition.
