Protesters halt men's road race

GLASGOW :Protesters halted the men's road race at the UCI World Championships on Sunday, stopping the peloton after 80km.

A nine-rider breakaway group, which was seven minutes ahead of the main bunch, was approaching the Crow Road climb on the route from Edinburgh to Glasgow. With an ongoing delay of around 30 minutes, riders got off their bikes and were waiting to learn when the race would resume. It was not immediately clear who the protesters were or what group they were representing. Several sporting events in Britain this year have been targeted by Just Stop Oil protesters including the Wimbledon Tennis Championships and the Ashes cricket test at Lord's.
