For the Cyclist.
The World Championships of Cycling are located in a different city or region every year. The event can be held over a relatively flat course which favors cycling sprinters or a hilly course which favors a climbing specialist or all-round. In each case the course is usually held on a circuit of which the riders complete multiple laps.
The World Championship and two of the three Grand Tours (namely the Giro d’Italia and the Tour de France) form the Triple Crown of Cycling.
