The final day of racing at the UEC Road European Championships in Ljubljana, Slovenia, kicks off with the Women's Junior Individual Time Trial. Riders will face a challenging 22 km route on the Šenčur circuit, highlighted by the demanding Možjanca climb, which measures 2.1 km at an average gradient of 10.2% and ramps up to a maximum of 16%.
After summiting the climb 14 kilometers from the finish line, competitors will navigate a tricky false flat section with punchy kickers, followed by a fast descent and a flat run-in over the final 5 kilometers. The time trials are scheduled to begin at 9:15 CEST, with the finish expected around 10:15 CEST, and live coverage will be available on UEC Cycling's YouTube channel.
Looking at the startlist, Neira enters as the top-rated favorite for the European title. Challengers such as Dworatzek and Mikutytė lead the second tier of favorites, while names like Five, Bieberle, and Acuti are also expected to feature strongly in the battle for the medals.
