The cycling weekend was extremely successful and proved once again why cyclists love to return to this unforgettable sporting experience, which we organize twice a year in Poreč. Despite the fact that the first day was rainy, we had an excellent training session, which further strengthened our endurance and cycling readiness.

We had a large cycling center at the hotel, where you can also rent road bikes. The center offers free bike washing, which we were happy to take advantage of so that we could train on Saturday with clean and ready bikes. Saturday's training took place in dry weather, which allowed us to make even better use of the route. Sunday, however, served up beautiful sunny weather, which ended the entire weekend in the most beautiful way possible.

In the hotel restaurant Valmar Parentino **** The food was, as always, top-notch. The offer was extremely varied and satisfied all tastes, from those who swear by sports nutrition to those who want a little pampering. There was also a spa center and saunas, as well as a large video gaming room, table tennis, billiards and table foosball, where we had a great time spending the rest of our free time when we weren't cycling. There were also guided workouts in the gym, both in the morning and in the evening, which further enriched our experience.

The hotel is also very suitable for families, as it offers numerous animations for children, childcare and other activities that allow for complete relaxation for all generations.

On Saturday evening, we were impressed with a lecture by Andrej Hauptman, president of the KD Rog club and sports director of the UAE team, where Tadej Pogačar is coached, who introduced us to the behind-the-scenes world of races like the Tour de France. His stories and insights into the workings of professional teams impressed us and brought us closer to the world of top cycling.

On Friday evening after dinner we had a nice get-together over a glass of wine, where we made friends and got to know each other better. Many of the weekend participants also connected with each other on Strava and are already looking forward to the new performance, which will take place in the fall.

Once again, sincere thanks go to Miro Miškulin for the excellent organization of the cycling weekend, who ensured that the event ran smoothly and in a pleasant atmosphere.

The cycling season officially started this weekend, so all cycling enthusiasts are invited to the "gentlemen ride" and regularly organized cycling trips for recreational cyclists, which take place every week.
