The older juniors of the Pogi Team performed excellently at the end of a difficult week of competition. They raced hard at the Giro di Primavera in San Vendemiano, Italy, and achieved excellent results. First, they completed five flat laps around the city, then six hilly ones, on which Vanja Kuntaric Žibert quickly found himself in the lead. They worked together with the breakaway riders until the last lap. Then attacks began to occur, and a pair of cyclists found themselves in the lead for 20 kilometers to the finish line. Vanja was just short of joining the front of the race, and then continued the race with two more cyclists. He did not shine in the sprint of the trio, but he was still fifth at the finish line (first among the 2008 riders). He also shone on the mountain finishes, where he was not far short of the overall victory. Luka Maksimovič completed the success in 20th place and Bor Ebner in 25th place.
