2017 Womens Road Racing Calender

With a significantly smaller race calendar than mens cycling, below are the main womens road races being held in 2017. 

Personally I'd like to see more stage racing being introduced alongside the Tour de France and La Vuelta, similar to that of the Giro D'Italia.  As the sport goes from strength to strength, with new sponsors and TV coverage this is something I hope we'll see in the future.  I'll continue to keep this updates as and when new information becomes available.
