“Glasgow is ready to feel the Power of The Bike”

With the first ever combined UCI World Championships underway – our city stands at the centre of the biggest cycling event in the world.

For athletes, there will be chances to seize immortality and to write their names into the history books as competitors, jersey-winners and record-breakers. For fans, another opportunity to enjoy a wonderful summer of sport and culture at inspiring venues. And, for Glasgow, an opportunity to change a great city for the better.

Already a UCI Bike City and European Capital of Sport, the 2023 UCI World Cycling Championships can help us find another gear in our push to become a healthier, more active and betterconnected community.

With BMX Racing, BMX Freestyle Park, BMX Freestyle Flatland, Road, Track, Indoor Cycling and Trial events all taking place within the city boundary, Glasgow is able to bring together the best of an incredibly diverse selection of cycling disciplines like never before.

And whether you are reading this perched on the edge of your seat by the velodrome or waiting on the peloton in the heart of the city centre, you and everyone around you have an important role to play in these Championships.

Glasgow knows a thing or two about sport – but, perhaps, even more about providing amazing support. So, whether you live here, or are just on loan to us for a few days, I know you will be ready to help create a special atmosphere. Enjoy yourself – and make sure they hear you!
