The rules for the new season are here, shaken, not stirred. Sealed and delivered. What’s changed?
U13 competitors may only be accompanied on the course only by coaches or representatives designated by their clubs. Accompanying persons on special stages must hold a competition licence or a licence for professional staff (coach, guide).
The entry fees are slightly higher, i.e. €45 for the long course (€40 for the last two seasons), €28 for the U17 category, €26 for the U15 and 4Fun categories and €20 for the U13 category (Article 94).
Attention, earlier registration deadlines! Entries on prijavim.se will close at noon on Mondays before the race. Payments will close at midnight on Tuesday to Wednesday (Article 95).
We will also publish the courses earlier on the Friday a week before the event. From then on, riding on the stages will be prohibited for participants and the tracks will be physically closed (Article 96).
We have “beefed up” the elevation a bit and added a special course for the U17 category. For the U13 course from 300 to 350 vertical metres per day, for the U15 and 4Fun from 600 to 700, for the U17 from 800 to 900 and for the long course at least 1200 vertical metres per day (Article 97).
The top five in the overall categories for men and women on the long course shall be awarded prize money. If there are fewer than ten competitors at the start, the prizes shall be halved (Article 107).
All competitions, including the National Championships, bring series points, without the worst result being scratched (Article 108).
The system of scoring points for team ranking has been slightly modified (Article 109).
It will not hurt anyone to have a quick read through the complete Slovenia Cycling rulebook. It’s in PDF and only in Slovenian so you can either make us translate it
or drop it into Google Translate to translate it into your language of choice.
SloEnduro starts on page 32 or with article 88. All the changes are marked in red.
An while you are at it, the UCI Mountain Bike Rules are also a great read ![]()
