UCI track world championships 1922
The 18th UCI Track World Championships took place from July 29th to August 7th 1922 in Liverpool and on September 17th in Paris .
The World Championships originally planned in Liverpool could not be completed there due to persistent rain, after numerous preliminary runs had already been held. Since the English cycling federation had blocked the resumption of the federations of Austria and Germany in the world cycling federation Union Cycliste Internationale , from which they had been excluded after the First World War , the illustrated cycling sport saw it as “a heavenly retaliation” . In addition, the train in Liverpool is "third class" . The World Championships came to an end in Paris in September.
