The end of the racing season is near and the UCI Road World Championships are underway, with the week-long slate of races running from September 21-29.
After last year’s ‘mega Worlds’ in Glasgow, Scotland, this season the races take place in Zürich, Switzerland featuring challenging hilly courses throughout the week.
The biggest stars of the men’s and women’s pelotons will be heading to Switzerland for the Worlds, including reigning road race champions Mathieu van der Poel (Netherlands) and Lotte Kopecky (Belgium) and time trial champions Remco Evenepoel (Belgium) and Chloe Dygert (USA).
We’ve already enjoyed the opening weekend of action, with the elite time trials bringing rainbow stripes to the shoulders of Olympic time trial champions Remco Evenepoel and Grace Brown (Australia).
Next up, the big names will be hoping to pull on the rainbow jersey once again come the end of September, but there are plenty of major contenders heading to Zürich with similar dreams of glory.

Tadej Pogačar (Slovenia), Richard Carapaz (Ecuador), Mads Pedersen (Denmark), Michael Matthews (Australia), Pauline Ferrand-Prevot (France) and Kristen Falkner (USA) are some of the stars already confirmed for the 2024 Worlds.
More riders including the likes of Demi Vollering (Netherlands), Stefan Küng (Switzerland), Elisa Longo Borghini (Italy) and Josh Tarling (Great Britain) are expected to join the start list for the event, too.

In this case, a VPN service will come in handy, allowing your computer to pretend it’s home and let you log into your streaming accounts to catch all of the racing action.
