Just six months to go until the UCI World Championships arrives in Glasgow... cycling
With six months until the best cyclists in the world descend on Glasgow for the UCI World Championships, concerns have been raised about the"dangerous" state of some roads to be used in the elite men and women's road races.
Tagging UCI president David Lappartient in a social media post, the local rider said the"UK has some of the worst roads in Western Europe and the roads around Glasgow are some of the worst in the UK." While responsibility for maintaining roads will fall to cash-strapped councils — already suffering shortfalls of between £7 million and £120 million,— road.cc has contacted the UCI to ask if they are aware of planned road improvements ahead of the event in early August.
