Preview
The Worlds open with a 39.2 km individual time trial through Montreal — long by modern standards, and almost entirely flat with only around 220 m of elevation. The route runs along the Saint Lawrence River, crosses the Samuel De Champlain Bridge, takes in the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve motor-racing track on Île Notre-Dame, and returns over the Concorde Bridge to finish on Avenue du Parc. Long, flat and fast suits the specialists: this is a course for raw sustained power rather than for climbers who time trial well.
