The UCI Road World Championships begin Sunday with a doubleheader of elite individual time trial competitions. The elite men take the course at 14:45 local time, following the race for the first rainbow jersey of the week decided by elite women, who start at 11:51 local time in Switzerland.
The elite men's course is 46.1km from Zurich-Oerlikon, rather than the women's start in Gossau, and back to Zürich. Once down the ramp, the 59 riders in the field will pass Dübendorf and Lake Greifensee before heading to Monchaltorf to join the same route as the women's elite time trial.
