Tour of Estonia

The Tour of Estonia is a road bicycle racing stage race held in Estonia. The race is organised as a 2.1 event on the UCI Europe Tour.[1] The race was created by amalgamating two existing one-day races in Estonia that traditionally took place during the same weekend in early summer, Tallinn–Tartu GP, and Tartu GP. These two races now make up the first and second stage, respectively.
