UCI Road World Championships – Women's under-23 road race

The UCI Road World Championships - Women's under-23 road race is the annual world championship for road bicycle racing for women aged 23 or under, organised by the world governing body, the Union Cycliste Internationale. The honours were first awarded in 2022. Through 2024, it has not been held as a separate race, but is based on placings of competitors below the age of 23 at the end of the preceding calendar year that participate in the women's road race.[1] From the 2025 edition of the world championships, the under-23 women have had their own race.[2]
