Lizzie Deignan has had previous success in Glasgow, winning the women’s road race at the 2014 Commonwealth Games

Lizzie Deignan, Geraint Thomas and Sarah Storey have been included in the British squad for the Road World Championships in Glasgow next month.

Mark Cavendish also makes the long list despite breaking his collarbone in a fall in the Tour de France on Saturday.

The road and para-road events will form part of the first combined UCI Cycling World Championships from August 3-13.

“Lots of happy memories so look forward to returning,” said Deignan, who won the 2014 Commonwealth title in Glasgow.

National road race champion Fred Wright, 24, and Olympic mountain bike cross-country champion Tom Pidcock, 23, who are both currently competing in the Tour de France, join 2018 Tour champion Thomas, 37, in a strong men’s team.

Former world champion Cavendish, 38, will be given time to assess the injury he picked up in the Tour de France on Saturday’s eighth stage before the final elite men’s squad is cut down to eight road riders and two time-trial specialists.

Deignan, who was the women’s world champion in 2015 and is returning after giving birth to her second child last September, heads a women’s squad that includes last year’s world under-23 road race silver medallist Pfeiffer Georgi, 22.

The 34-year-old said: “I can’t wait to pull a GB jersey on again. It’s always a privilege and can’t be taken for granted, especially after two children and with the depth of talent we have in the women’s peloton now.

“It will be good to be back on familiar roads in Glasgow where I’ve had previous success at nationals and the Commonwealth Games.”

As well as elite races, the championships will include under-23 and junior competitions. Britain’s junior squad includes Ben Wiggins, the 17-year-old son of former world and Olympic track and time-trial champion Bradley Wiggins, 43, who also won the 2012 Tour de France.

Storey, 45, is aiming for an 11th road title and leads a para-road squad that won 43 medals in the 2023 Para-cycling Road World Cup series.

The road and time-trial events form part of an 11-day programme of 13 world championship events – including the Mountain Bike and Track World Championships – taking place in Glasgow and across Scotland.

The para-road events will take place in Dumfries and Galloway from 9-13 August, while the road events will take place across the duration of the event, with starts and finishes in Glasgow, Edinburgh, Stirling and Loch Lomond.
