This anniversary gives us the opportunity to look back at the evolution of the institution by recalling the events that have marked its history and the personalities who have served as its President throughout a century and a quarter that has seen cycling undergo a meteoric development. A fascinating story to (re)discover through this short video and five articles, published on www.uci.org. Thanks to these articles, you can:

- relive the eventful day that marked the birth of the UCI;
- learn more about the Olympic history of cycling, from 1896 to the present day;
- meet the 11 Presidents who have guided the organisation over the decades;
- take a look at the major advances that have marked the life of the institution;
