4 Islands MTB Stage Race Croatia

4 islands (Krk, Rab, Cres, Mali Losinj) 4 days 4 stages The race is driven in teams of two, both drivers have to cross the finish line together. I started this race for the 3rd time, but for the first time with my teammate Christopher Schwab. On Tuesday morning we traveled to Croatia to enter and make all the preparations. We were on the road together with another team from the Nora Racing Team. Punctually at 10:05 a.m. we started the race only 5 minutes behind the UCI drivers. The first climb was a bit narrow and therefore hectic and stressful, as it was about getting a good position before going onto the singletrack. We mastered this perfectly and were soon at the front of the field. So after that we were able to rely completely on ourselves and drive at our own pace. This stage started and arrived in Baska, beautiful coasts, technical and challenging trails made this day perfect. 3 more perfect days followed and at the end of the 4 days we were able to secure 1st place among the amateur teams.
