The 2023 Road World Championships in Scotland will suit the sprinters and Classics riders in action in this year’s World Championships in Australia, with the final circuits and finish on the city centre streets.   

Glasgow and Scotland will host the first edition of the so-called 'Super World Championships' or mega-event, with 13 cycling disciplines, including track, mountain biking and road racing, held together between August 3-13.
