The men’s elite individual time trial is the second event of this year’s UCI Road World Championships in Kigali, Rwanda, following on from women’s event on Sunday.
The course takes the riders on a 40.6km out-and-back route, starting at Kigali’s BK Arena and returning to finish at the city’s Convention Centre.
It will be the hilliest Worlds time trial since Bergen in 2017, with a total elevation of 680m, gained over four climbs: the Côte de Nyanza (tackled from both sides – firstly 2.5km at 5.8%, and then 4.1km at 3.1%), the Côte de Peage (2km at 6%), and finally the Côte de Kimihurura (1.3km at 6.3%), which is cobbled and leads the riders to a closing kicker at the finish line.
There are three reigning world champions on the start list: Evenepoel, who is targeting three in a row, last year’s under-23 champion Iván Romeo (Spain), and Paul Seixas (France), the winner of the junior time trial in Zurich, and the youngest rider taking part on Sunday, still only 18 years old.
