On behalf of the organizing committee Bernard Majhenič Chairman of the organizing committee Iztok Kvas Race director Spoštovani ljubitelji gorskega kolesarstva, Priprave na letošnji tekmi za svetovni pokal so bile zahtevne, predvsem zaradi nujnosti upoštevanja vseh zaščitnih ukrepov, ki jih je predpisal Nacionalni inštitut za varovanje zdravja (NIJZ), ki je izdal dovoljenje za izvedbo tekem. Vsi ukrepi so del potrjenega protokola, ki ga bodo pristojne inšpekcijske službe nadzorovale ves čas trajanja tekmovanja, zato vljudno prosimo, da jih v času zadrževanja na prireditvenem prostoru tudi dosledno upoštevate. Ponosni smo, da Mednarodna kolesarska zveza (UCI) v Mariboru vidi zanesljivega partnerja, tudi v zahtevnih okoliščinah. Veseli smo, da v Mariboru na dveh tekmah, ki štejeta za svetovni pokal, gostimo najboljše gorske kolesarje na svetu. Želimo, da se v Mariboru in na prireditvenem prostoru počutite kot doma, zato svetujemo, da preberete vsebino knjižice, ki smo jo pripravili za bas. Želimo vam prijetno bivanje v našem mestu in veliko nepozabnih trenutkov na svetovnem pokalu. Bernard Majhenič Predsednik organizacijskega odbora Iztok Kvas Direktor tekmovanja

9 Maribor and Pohorje have returned to the map of world venues of this prestigious competition of the best mountain bike riders of the world. The world cup will stop again in one of their first and most popular venues among the competitors. The Formula One in Mountain Bike, the Mercedes-Benz UCI Mountain Bike World Cup, returns to the venue, where mountain bike competitions have been held since 1998, and the last World Cup competition was organized in the season of In the 1999 Pohorje for the first time hosted such a high level mountain bike competition, which among the participants, journalists and representatives of the UCI World Cycling Federation earned the title of the best in the world of that season. What makes Maribor and Pohorje so special? A unique downhill course, a suitable venue near the big city, and a warm welcome from the locals, who after Alpine Ski World Cup Golden Fox, took the competition for their own.

10 Maribor in Mariborsko Pohorje sta se vrnila na zemljevid svetovnih prizorišč tega prestižnega tekmovanja najboljših gorskih kolesarjev sveta, svetovna serija se bo ponovno ustavila v eni svojih prvih in bolj priljubljenih prizorišč med tekmovalci. Formula ena gorskega kolesarjenja, Mercedes-Benz UCI Mountain Bike World Cup, se vrača na prizorišče, kjer se tekmovanja v gorskem kolesarstvu odvijajo že od leta 1998, zadnje tekmovanje za svetovni pokal pa je bilo organizirano v sezoni V sezoni 1999 je Mariborsko Pohorje prvič gostilo tekmovanja najvišjega nivoja v gorskem kolesarstvu, ki si je med udeleženci, novinarji in predstavniki svetovne kolesarske zveze UCI prislužilo naziv najboljšega na svetu tiste sezone. Točno 20 let kasneje se gorski kolesarji vračate domov. Kaj dela Mariborsko Pohorje tako posebno? Edinstvena proga za spust, ustrezno prizorišče v bližini večjega mesta in topel sprejem domačinov, ki so tekmovanje po vzoru Zlate lisice, tekmovanja v svetovnem pokalu alpskega smučanja, vzeli za svoje.

12 THE WORLD CUP TRACK The WORLD CUP black line with its length of 2.1 km offers adrenaline pleasures of the royal class. Monika Hrastnik, the most successful Slovenian female rider, describes the race course with following words:»the entire route is interesting and great for spectators. Usually, most visitors spectate the race at the Rock n Roll section at Trikotna jasa, although I think that the lower part of the course is also interesting because of the compressions. This is the section, where you actually see the difference in speed between the riders and the operation of the bikes. The terrain is very diverse, the track is very fast, and you have to keep pace from the start. You must keep the speed you gain in bends and compressions along the whole course. Roots and rocky sections are in wet weather very slippery and this makes the course even more interesting and demanding.«

13 WORLD CUP črna proga s svojo dolžino 2,1 km nudi adrenalinske užitke kraljevega razreda. Najuspešnejša slovenska ženska tekmovalka, Monika Hrastnik, opiše progo z naslednjimi besedami:»cela proga v Mariboru je zanimiva in super za gledalce. Ponavadi je največ gledalcev na odseku Rock n roll pri Trikotni jasi, čeprav mislim da je zanimiv tudi nov spodnji del zaradi kompresij. Tam dejansko vidiš razliko v hitrosti med tekmovalci in delovanje kolesa. Teren je zelo razgiban, proga je cela zelo hitra in moraš držati tempo že od štarta. Na progi moraš ves čas pravilno prenašati hitrost iz ovinkov in kompresij. Korenine ter skalnati odseki so v mokrem precej spolzki.

17 THE ELITE IN MARIBOR ENG The current leader in individual ranking LOIC BRUNI is coming to Maribor. The Frenchman celebrated at last year's inaugural race of the season and was enthusiastic about the World Cup course. The currently second and third in the overall downhill ranking in elite men AMAURY PIERRON and TROY BROSNAN will be also riding for new points in Maribor this year. Troy was ranked as third in last year s World Cup race in Maribor.

18 DANNY HART, who won the second place in Maribor last year, currently occupies the fourth place in the overall downhill ranking, was last year completely taken over by the enthusiasm of almost 25,000 people under Pohorje. This year, due to the current epidemiological situation, there will be significantly fewer visitors, but we can count on the racers who b struggling for new important points. The British TAHNEE SEAGRAVE certainly has best memories on Maribor since she won this first season race. The most attractive part of the course, Rox & Roll, caused her the most problems since she lost the most advantage over her competitors at this part of the track. The cards in the women s elite competition were fairly shuffled in this unusual season. The second-ranked last year in Maribor RACHEL ATHERTON is only 24th in the overall ranking this year, the three current leaders in the overall ranking, MARINE CABIR- OU, HANNAH TRACY and VERONIKA WIDMANN, will also be fighting in Maribor for new points.

19 Last year we were looking forward to the excellent fifth place of MONIKA HRASTNIK, who currently occupies the 16th place in the overall ranking. After a season in which almost all races were canceled due to health conditions, I am happy with two home races. I hope for a similar excellent ranking, but it's hard to predict how it will turn out, because due to the rare races I don't have a real sense of where I stand compared to the competitors, "said Hrastnik, who hopes for dry weather. JURE ŽABJEK reached last year the twentieth place, and currently occupies the 33rd place in the overall ranking. *** SLO V Maribor prihaja trenutno vodilni v skupnem seštevku LOIC BRUNI. Francoz je slavil na lanski uvodni tekmi v sezono, ki je potekala v Mariboru in bil nad Worldcup progo navdušen. Tudi trenutno drugo in tretje uvrščena v skupnem seštevku AMAURY PIERRON in TROY BROSNAN se bosta letos v Mariboru borila za nove točke, slednjemu mariborska proga ustreza, saj si je lani na njen privozil tretje mesto. DANNY HART, ki je lani v Mariboru stopil na drugo najvišjo stopničko, v skupnem seštevku trenutno zaseda četrto mesto, lani pa ga je pod Pohorjem povsem prevzelo navdušenje skoraj 25-tisoč glave množice.

20 Britanka TAHNEE SEAGRAVE ima zaradi lanske zmage na Maribor zagotovo lepe spomine, čeprav ji je največ težav povzročal za gledalce najbolj atraktiven del proge, imenovan Rox&Roll, kjer je izgubila največ prednosti pred tekmicami. Karte v ženski elitni konkurenci so se v eni sezoni pošteno premešale. Lani v Mariboru drugo uvrščena RACHEL ATHERTON je letos v skupnem seštevku šele na 24. mestu, v Mariboru pa se bodo za nove točke borile tudi tri trenutno vodilne v skupnem seštevku Francozinja MARINE CABIROU, Avstralka HANNAH TRACY in Italijanka VERONIKA WIDMANN. Lani smo se veselili odličnega petega mesta MONIKE HRASTNIK, ki v skupnem seštevku trenutno zaseda 16. mesto.»po sezoni, v kateri so bile zaradi zdravstvenih razmer po svetu dejansko vse tekme odpovedane, sem vesela dveh domačih dirk. Upam na podobno odlično uvrstitev, ampak težko napovem, kako se bo izšlo, saj zaradi redkih tekem nimam pravega občutka, kje sem v primerjavi s tekmicami,«nam je povedala Hrastnikova, ki upa na suho vreme, čeprav ji proga, kot priznava, ustreza tudi mokra in posledično še hitrejša. JURE ŽABJEK je lani na uvodni tekmi v sezono dosegel dvajseto mesto, v skupnem seštevku pa trenutno zaseda 33.
