The 2022 UCI Road World Championships take place in Wollongong, Australia, September 18-25. The best riders in the world are set to compete throughout a week of competition that will culminate with the men’s and women’s road races on the final weekend.
It’s only the second time that the UCI Road World Championships will have taken place in Australia.
The competition begins on September 19 with the elite women’s and men’s time trials with both categories competing over a 32.4km course. It’s the first time that the women and men have raced over the same distances in the UCI Road World Championships and the events promise strong lineups. Remco Evenepoel (Belgium), Filippo Ganna (Italy), and Ethan Hayter will lead the charge on the men’s side, while Ellen van Dijk will look to defend her 2021 crown against Annemiek van Vleuten, and home favorite, Grace Brown.
