On Friday, August 18th, join BK Timun and bike to the stars of Mosor! All proceeds will help fund DVD Žrnovnica with new firefighting equipment.

On August 18th, participants will gather in the center of Žrnovnica at 17:00 for all categories.

Here's a look at the route:

The joint start is at 17:00 from the center of Žrnovnica. From here, the road will go towards the Korešnica on a macadam road. The approach to the macadam will take place at a limited speed under police escorts. It is strictly forbidden to overtake the escorts to lead the race under the rotation of the race judge. If this occurs, the participant will see automatic disqualification from the race! 

At about 8km, there is a feed zone. The gateway is set at 11km and closes at 19:00. The 11km ascent on the asphalt road in Sitno Gornje is secured, but the road to Star Village is not completely closed for traffic. Participants are therefore warned to navigate to the right traffic lanes and observe traffic conditions. All turns are clearly marked with arrows, and in crossings and dangerous areas, participants will be alerted or traffic will be stopped or slowed. A cycling team, technical and medical assistance will be provided.
