Update: Glasgow Awarded First Ever All-Discipline World Championships in 2023
Maybe worth some of you going and reading the UCI spec for this format of World Championship. The intention is it is awarded to a region rather than a city as the number of cities with all facilities on their doorstep could be counted on one hand and there is no guarantee they would even bid. The idea is a region able to pool suitable resources over the region could host it. This would also allow regions divided by a national border if close enough could bid. Eg South Wales and Bristol or the Ardennes with Holland Belgium and Luxembourg. This increases the likelihood that bidders will not be so hard to find if they have the money to buy it.

World Champ hurt in training accident
Rachel is pure Armadillo and will bounce back she was helicoptered of the UK national Champs course this year and was back in the afternoon from Hospital to watch her brother have a go for the National Champs jersey...
road crashes are a problem for riders used to running on the left hand drive down the road when riding abroad in countries that drive on the other side especially when using narrow roads... If you see an approaching vehicle, your safety instinct says to pull to the left to let them come through, however the on coming driver sees a cyclist in effect steering into the middle of the road and then in effect riding against the traffic.. they are baffled to say the least and do not think the rider might be foreign.. the accident may not be all the drivers fault.. only the Athertons know..
All I can hope is she recovers fast ....
