'My best shot' - Yorkshire's Tom Pidcock eyeing world road race history

Tom Pidcock, a 27-year-old Yorkshire cyclist and two-time Olympic champion, is co-leader of the British Cycling team at the UCI Road Race World Championships in Montreal, with the race scheduled for Sunday, September 27, 2026. Pidcock, who has also won a Tour de France stage and multiple world titles across different disciplines, describes the road race world title as 'pretty special' and considers it his best shot at completing a historic set of victories. A win in Montreal would add the elite road race rainbow jersey to his already decorated palmares.
