Yorkshire is making a bid to host the cycling Road World Championships in 2019. Tourism organisation Welcome to Yorkshire said the government would underwrite the cost of the venture. Details of the successful bid are due to be announced at the Union Cycliste International's annual congress in Qatar in October. The Road World Championships is an event for professional cyclists, with male and female riders competing. Riders take part for the chance to win the rainbow jersey.
