The elite men's individual time trial will close out the races against the clock at the UCI Road World Championships in Glasgow, ahead of the final under-23 men's and elite women's road races on the weekend. There will be 78 elite men taking on a 47.8km time trial course that includes 352 metres of elevation gain.

Here’s how it works. The UCI Road World Championships begin Sunday with a doubleheader of elite individual time trial competitions. The elite men take the course at 14:45 local time, following the race for the first rainbow jersey of the week decided by elite women, who start at 11:51 local time in Switzerland.
