img_5435This days we checked whether the routes of the prologue and the 1st stage are right for this year’s Rekreatur. Due to the works on the roads in Šenčur, the PROLOG route is delayed (see it here), but the fact that it is flat and beautiful does not change anything. What is good for us is that a new bike path has been built from the Brdo Estate towards vilčlage of Kokrica. This is another step that brings the Municipality of Kranj closer to the cyclists PERFECT organized municipalities in Slovenia. That is also why we took the PROLOGUE route here.
However, when we checked the route of the 1st STAGE (here it is), we were of course received by the “Recreatur” weather conditions. When we reached the planned checkpoint at the upper station of the Stari Vrh cable car, it poured and washed us all the way to Kranj. This is also why the video of the route is a bit simplified as we hurried to the dry shelter at home. The route of the 1st STAGE will definitely be slightly changed, as the ascent to Stari Vrh is too much.

rr2020_promo_slovenia_9The first FIVE teams consisting of members of Rekreatur association applied for this year’s Rekreatur. Among them are both winners – wearing orange shirts – last year. These are the Okrepčevalnica Nace and Kolonce Teams. The two Dutch teams are also together again and I sincerely hope that this year’s “Delta Covid 19″ does not happen to us as it did last year. To those who are still hesitate for join us  let me give you some encouragement. For the first time and probably the only one in Slovenia, our event will be the promotion of “The fantastic bloom of Kranj” – cycling products prepared by the Institute for Tourism and Culture Kranj. This means that there will be a greater emphasis on the events in the checkpoints that we have chosen where the points are also worth visiting ‘fantastic bloom..’ Of course, it on every Rekreatur there are surprises, so one of the stages will be a little different than we outlined it on our website. Which one? Well..you have to join us and you will see what it will be and what we have prepared for you.
