After five years, downhill mountain bike racing is returning to a once traditional venue, including the European Championship races, in cooperation with the Slovenian Cycling Federation. This year’s national championship will also count for points in the Slovenian 20Chocolate Downhill Cup.
The 20Chocolate Downhill Cup series calendar for 30 June had not yet confirmed the location, but we all firmly believed in the deal. Now it’s clear: the second race of the 20chocolate Downhill Cup series in the 2024 season will take place on Sunday 30 June at the Bike Park Kranjska Gora. This will also be this year’s national downhill championship.
On Saturday, 29 June at 14:00, the Slovenian Cycling Union is organizing free guided gravel and enduro tours around Kranjska Gora.
When: 29 June 2024 at 14.00, start at 14.15
Where: Bike Park Kranjska Gora (race office)
