2025 UCI Road World Championships

The 2025 UCI Road World Championships was the 98th edition of the UCI Road World Championships, the annual world championships for road bicycle racing. It was held from 21 to 28 September 2025 in Kigali, Rwanda. It was the first UCI Road World Championships hosted in Africa. A total of thirteen events were held, consisting of six road races, six individual time trials, and a team time trial mixed relay. This is the first year with a standalone women's U23 race; previously, the U23 winner was simply the highest-placed rider under 23 in the women's elite race.
