Last week brought tremendous success for our teams, both the men's team Ljubljana Gusto Santic as a women's team BTC City Ljubljana Zhiraf Ambedo.

In the center of the action was the four-day stage race Belgrade - Banjaluka, where Dylan Hopkins spectacularly won the first stage, the 22-year-old Australian, who represents the colors of our Ljubljana Gusto Santic, showed exceptional strength and tactical skill.

Also on the scene was the five-day Giro Mediterraneo Rosa race, where our team BTC City Ljubljana Zhiraf Ambedo was represented by Giada Borghesi. Giada also dominated and won the first stage, which shows the strength and depth of talent we have in our teams. These are days that we will remember for a long time, as our male and female cyclists once again proved that they are at the top of world cycling.

Day 1:

When boys A and B stepped on the ground of Poreč, they were immediately seized by cycling fever. Without hesitation, they mounted the steel horses and embarked on an exciting journey.

After a well-deserved break, they tried their hand at technical training, where they practiced balance and improved their skills.

A new day brought a new challenge – a longer training session on rugged terrain. Riders tackled ups and downs, tested their endurance and enjoyed the beautiful views. In the afternoon, they went for a relaxing walk by the sea to Poreč, where they had delicious ice cream and indulged in the joys of the sea.

Day 3:

The long-awaited but tiring day was here. The cyclists competed in a demanding training session with climbs that tested their strength and endurance.
