State of the nation: Analysing Australia’s 2024 Road World Championships teams

Ahead of the 2024 UCI Road World Championships, Cyclingnews is taking a deep dive into the key teams for the elite road races, starting with Australia.

History

It’s been some time since Australia has walked away from a UCI Road World Championships with an elite gold medal, as the nation hasn’t taken to the top step in the senior ranks at Road Worlds since the now-retired Rohan Dennis claimed the men’s time trial title in 2018 and 2019. Before that, it was Cadel Evans who in 2009 became the first Australian ever to win an individual elite road world title when he claimed the road race.
