Tour of Slovenia

DIRKA PO SLOVENIJI.

We crossed the path on the first day as Ignac had his first planned stop in Brežice, where the start of the 3rd stage took place at that time. He briefly introduced himself there, and was also greeted by the race director Bogdan Fink and MEP Franc Bogovič.

6th stage also included a climb to the top of Sveta Gora where a few days before, the queen stage of the race took place. This point was out of his planned route, but he still had some power after 170 kilometers and a little more than 4000 altitude meters that day to climb the route, which like he said, he greatly underestimated.

It really is a very demanding ascent, not so long, but the slope to the top is uncompromising.
