UCI Cycling World Championships 2023: preview
Encompassing no fewer than 13 world championships across seven disciplines over 11 days of competition, the inaugural UCI Cycling World Championships is set to be the biggest cycling event ever, one that rivals the Olympics in terms of importance.
It marks the first time that cycling's sprawling network of world championships have been brought together under one umbrella, but such is the scale of the event that host city Glasgow has outsourced select races to numerous cities and towns around Scotland.
8,000 elite and amateur athletes will compete for more than 200 medals on roads, tracks, hills, dirt and ramps, with every major cycling discipline bar cyclo-cross and gravel set to be contested.
After this, the UCI Cycling World Championships are scheduled to be staged every four years, 12 months ahead of the Summer Olympic Games.
It promises to be the world's greatest show on two wheels, and you can read on as we explain how to watch a FREE 2023 UCI Cycling World Championships live stream from anywhere with a VPN. We've also listed the UCI Cycling World Championships schedule below.
