The first event was the U15 Individual Time Trial of 17 kilometers. Thomas placed 8th in a time of 31:29:45 and Oliver placed 11th in a time of 32:59:09.

In their second event, the boys competed in a mass-start 36km road race. Thomas finished 6th in the lead group, just 35 seconds behind the winner, and Oliver, unlucky to have mechanical problems during the race, placed 10th.
