13th Tour de Pologne Women 2025 🇵🇱 (2.1) WE – Stage 2 – Chelm – Chelm : 99,4 km
Tour de Pologne Women is a multi-day road cycling race, held annually in Poland. It is rated as a UCI category 2.1 event.
Linda Zanetti (UNo-X Mobility) won stage 2 of the Tour de Pologne Women, accelerating away on the rising, rough cobbled finish in Chełm, in south-east Poland.
Zanetti was sixth on stage 1 but took advantage of a lead-out to be well-placed in the final 300 metres. She was able to open a gap in sight of the line to win by several bike lengths.
Marie Le Net (FDJ-Suez) was second, and Sofia Bertizzolo (UAE Team ADQ).
Stage 1 winner Chiara Consonni (Canyon-SRAM zondacrypto) was boxed in and finished eighth but kept the race leader’s yellow jersey. She leads Zanetti by five seconds, with Le Net third at ten seconds.
The 100km stage covered a long loop south and then west of Chełm on largely flat and fast country roads. Alison Jackson (EF Education-Oatly) was one of a number of riders to go on the attack, but the peloton was determined that the stage would end in a sprint.
With 30km to go, Consonni won the intermediate sprint and took a precious three-second time bonus ahead of Clara Copponi (Lidl-Trek) and Hélène Hesters (Liv AlUla Jayco).
The surge in speed sparked an important attack and split in the peloton. Vittoria Guazzini (FDJ-Suez) tried a solo move, and then the peloton split again as another FDJ-Suez rider attacked. A group of 20 or so riders got away and gradually opened a gap of 20 seconds.
