2023 UCI Gran Fondo World Championships

The 2023 UCI Gran Fondo World Championships were the culmination of a series of mass participation cycling events in the Gran Fondo/cyclosportive tradtition held across Scotland between 4 and 7 August 2023, predominantly in Perth, Scotland. Unlike the UCI Road World Championships, which are considered an elite professional event, the Gran Fondo World Championships are targeted at mass participation and cyclists not in full-time professional teams, uniting amateurs and retired professionals, dedicated club cyclists and age-group competitors.

Qualification for the World Championships was achieved through participation in the 2023 UCI Gran Fondo World Series.

This edition was the first time the Gran Fondo World championships were held together with the elite road racing championships as part of the inaugural 2023 UCI Cycling World Championships. Medals were awarded in road race and time trial, across age-group classifications. Older riders competed in Medio Fondo, a shorter version of the Gran Fondo.

Age group winners included several former elite professionals, most notably London 2012 road race champion Alexandr Vinokurov and Tour de France veteran Johnny Hoogerland, while Atlanta 1996 road race and multiple road and track cycling world champion Jeannie Longo won the time trial championship in her age class (W65-69).
