1902 UCI Track Cycling World Championships
The 1902 UCI Track Cycling World Championships were the World Championship for track cycling. They took place in Rome, Italy for the sprint disciplines on 15 June and -as the flat cycling track in Rome proved unsuitable- in Berlin, Germany for the motor paced disciplines on 22 June.[1] Four events for men were contested, two for professionals and two for amateurs.
