We start again with Golovec Trails Test Day in Ljubljana. The event is just around the corner &#8211; on Saturday, 16 March. <a href=\"https:\/\/sloveniadownhillcup.si\/en\/golovec-trails-test-day-2024\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/sloveniadownhillcup.si\/en\/golovec-trails-test-day-2024\/\">Registration is open.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Racing for points starts with the world-class classic, the DH Pohorje in Maribor, on Saturday 4 May. The race also opens the auner Austrian Gravity Series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The host of the second Cup race on the last weekend in June is yet to be announced. In mid-July, another classic will follow, the DH Sor&#8217;ca on Sori\u0161ka planina.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the end of July, we join forces once again with the auner Austrian Gravity Series (aAGS), the Slovenian Cup will be hosted for the first time in Lienz in East Tyrol. It&#8217;s not as far as it sounds, an hour 45 minutes drive from the Karavanke tunnel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Downhill racers will enjoy their summer holidays in spurts this year, with the return to Kope next on 18 August. There&#8217;s no better way to escape the summer heat than racing on a new course in the mountains!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before the end of September and for the final round, we will visit Croatia again, the Sljeme mountain above Zagreb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image
