The Pogi Team, a team of older juniors founded and supported by two-time Tour de France winner Tadej Pogačar, competed in two races in Italy this weekend and demonstrated their talent and fighting spirit.
On Saturday, the Pogi Team competed in the Gran Premio Eccellenze Valli del Soligo team time trial, which covered 17.8 kilometers. With Marcel Skok, Jure Medved, Domen Oblak, Jakub Husar, and Tine Jenko in the lineup, our young cyclists finished 23rd out of 34 teams. The Zalf Euromobil Fior team took the win.

On Sunday, the first category race TF GD Dorigo MO Biemmereti MO Ettore e Cristiano F was held, covering a distance of 135 kilometers. The race was very demanding, as the circuit included three climbs up the famous Ca del Poggio hill, which has an average gradient of 12 percent over a good kilometer. Our Pogi Team members fought bravely and showed some great moves. The best among them was Marcel Skok, who finished 35th.
