Innsbruck to host 2018 road world championships

“I have no doubt that Innsbruck will provide a stunning and challenging route for riders to compete on, as well as a wonderful, unique backdrop that can only add to the spectator and viewer experience,” UCI president Brian Cookson said in a statement on the organisation's website.

This year's event takes place in Doha, Qatar in October.
