YORKSHIRE 2019 PARA-CYCLING INTERNATIONAL Groundbreaking event

For the first time, a UCI sanctioned international Para-cycling event will precede the UCI Road World Championships and will act as a qualifier for the Tokyo 2020 Paralympic Games. This one-day event will comprise of races for four groups of para-athletes (blind and visually impaired, athletes with cerebral palsy, locomotor disabilities and hand cyclists).

INDIVIDUAL TIME TRIALS A race against time

Prepare for thrills and excitement as riders take on one of the most dramatic and demanding races of the UCI Road World Championships. In this discipline they don’t ride in a peloton, but alone against the clock and the fact they are set off at regular intervals means you’ll be treated to non-stop action. The athlete who crosses the finish line in the fastest time is declared the winner.

Road closures, diversion routes, parking restrictions and alternative parking areas will be in place to help to minimise the impact on residents and businesses whilst also ensuring the safe and successful delivery of the championships.

through the week. For the most up to date race timings and road closures go to yorkshire2019.co.uk. The majority of road closures are not in place all day, every day.

What type of road closures will be in place? Due to the nature of racing on the Harrogate circuit, road closures are required to maintain public and event safety. We aim to keep these closures as short as possible, with dedicated crossing times and aim to reopen roads as soon as it is safe to do so to keep disruption to a minimum.

2019 ROAD WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS

YORKSHIRE GREAT BRITAIN

Across the route impact on the roads will be limited. In most cases this will be on a rolling road closure basis lasting no more than an hour. The only exception at start locations, the Harrogate Circuit, during Time Trials and Yorkshire 2019 Para-Cycling International events where roads closures will be longer. Road closures will be managed by the police.

TEAM TIME TRIAL MIXED RELAY Yorkshire making history

Yorkshire will be making history by hosting the first-ever Team Time Trial Mixed Relay. National teams will consist of three male riders and three female riders, each working together as a team. The male riders will set off first and take on one lap of the Harrogate circuit. The female riders will then replace them on the road as soon as the second male rider has crossed the finish line. Final timings will then be taken when the second female rider crosses the finish line and the fastest team will be declared the winner.

ROAD RACES

Race for glory A mass start event where national teams come together in a peloton and compete against each other. The wining rider is the first to cross the finish line at the end of the full race distance. Teams range in size with the number of riders being determined on the number of points that country has amassed on the official UCI Rankings over the previous 12 months. The more points, the more riders from each country can compete.

Andy Hindley CEO Yorkshire 2019

WHAT ARE THE UCI ROAD WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS? The Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) is the world governing body for cycling. The first UCI Road World Championships took place in Copenhagen, Denmark in 1921 and has been held every year since, except during World War II between 1939-1945. An elite level competition for women was introduced in 1958, with Individual Time Trials added to the Championships in 1994. Located in a different city or region every year, 2019 will be the first time that Britain has hosted the UCI Road World Championships since 1982 and Yorkshire is aiming to deliver the most inclusive, innovative and inspiring UCI Road World Championships in the history of the competition.

Yorkshire will host the 92nd edition of the UCI Road World Championships. Around 1,400 athletes are set to compete from 90 countries, with races having a predicted global television audience of over 250 million. Over 6,000 delegates, technicians and journalists are set to visit the 2019 UCI Road World Championships in Yorkshire with over 2,000 volunteers getting involved.

THE ICONIC RAINBOW JERSEY The winners of the Time Trial and Road Race events at the UCI Road World Championships is awarded the rainbow jersey – one of the most iconic prizes in sport.

The Rainbow Bands: The rainbow jersey was first awarded in 1927, the year of the first UCI Road World Championships for professional riders. The design has remained much the same ever since. It is predominantly white with five horizontal stripes representing the UCI colours around the chest. The colours of the stripes (blue, red, black, yellow and green) represent the five continents and are the same as those which appear in the rings on the Olympic flag. The rainbow stripes are used for all nine UCI-governed cycling disciplines, including road racing, track racing, cyclo-cross, BMX, trials, para-cycling and mountain biking. Legacy: After the world champion’s reign is over, that rider is allowed to wear rainbow piping on the sleeve cuffs and collar of their trade team jersey until the end of their career, as testimony to an exceptional achievement.

Leave no trace of your visit and take your litter home. Enjoy the race. Plan ahead and be prepared. Follow advice and local signs. For your safety and the protection of the countryside leave gates as you find them and only follow designated footpaths. Keep away from crops, machinery and animals. Use gates, stiles or gaps in boundaries and leave them as you find them. Don’t climb over hedges – you might damage them and disturb plants and wildlife. Respect signs and do not trespass on private land.
