TOGETHER WE ARE BUILDING A CLUB OF NEW WINNERS
POGI TEAM STORY
Tadej Pogačar was a member of KD Rog for many years (from the boys' category to U23). The KD Rog club provided him with the best conditions for quality training, he received professional knowledge from coaches, and several times a year he improved his knowledge and skills at joint training sessions.
He also got a bike and equipment to use free of charge, because otherwise he would have found it difficult to take up cycling, Tadej says today.
A few years ago, he left Roga and entered the professional world, signing a contract with the UAE World Tour team, which helped him achieve historic successes this year, winning the Tour de France three times and the Giro d'Italia once. He also won a bronze medal in the road race at the Tokyo Olympics.
Tadej feels responsible for using his name and achievements to give something back to young cyclists at KD Rog and POGI TEAM, thereby ensuring the next generation of cyclists. He has therefore decided to help future young cycling talents.
The promotional video was shown at the Slovenian government's press conference announcing its bid for the Grand Depart of the 2029 Tour de France in Slovenia.
