Show and prove that you excel in all elements of riding – going uphill and downhill. Bike Park Ljubljana will be the right terrain to show how good you are, but there’s a catch – you will have to ride all five challenges with the same bicycle. Which means that on this day everybody can finish on top as each of us is better at one thing and worse at other. You will choose when (inside the set time frame) you will ride certain discipline and how many tries will you do. You can go once, twice… ten times if you want.
If you’re really good on your bike, then this is your chance to shine and get crowned as KING or QUEEN OF BIKE PARK LJUBLJANA.

Organizers deserves the right to set upper limit on the total number of the competitors. This decision will be taken after several tests on the tracks and in order to assure smooth execution of the race and that we’ll follow potential restrictions that will be still in place in September. With quick registration you’ve nothing to worry about and you will get a number plate for your bike.
Each of the disciplines will be race against time, victory will go to the rider with the fastest time (for both female and male). Absolute winner is the the one with the fastest absolute time from all disciplines.
TIME RANKINGS FOR EACH OF THE DISCIPLINES
Additional rules linked to the overall ranking
– If two riders have the same time, the winner is the one with more better results in the individual disciplines.
Winners
The order of each of the disciplines will be evaluated by points, with the winner of the stage getting the most points, and so on. Overall winner or the winners are those with the most points.
Awards
Best riders of the day will be awarded with practical and symbolic awards. There will be no price money. We encourage internal and friendly rivalry and personal bets; we might even hang up a board so you can share them with others.
Bike & Gear
– Use of the bicycle helmet is mandatory. Organizer strongly suggest the use of the full-face helmet, legs/knees & arm protection and body protection.
– Every competitor has to race all disciplines with the same bike, it’s not allowed to change bikes during the day. Every bicycle will get a tag at the time of registration.
