# Slovenian National Road Race Championships

The Slovenian National Road Race Championships have been held since independence in 1991.
Blaž Jarc (U23 cat.) set absolute best time in 2009 Championships and beat all top riders (Elite cat.), and the same thing with U23 also happened at National Time Trials (2006, 2007, 2009). After that, Slovenian Cycling Federation (KZS) decided to change rules and make it more understable to public. Unlike before, when the U23 results were counted only in their own category, from 2010 onwards, the potential U23 winner by time becomes the Elite - absolute champion (the same goes for 2nd, 3rd...etc).

## Elite

At the 1st Championships held in Slovenske Konjice (1991), Slovenia was already over one month independent (widely recognized early next year), but cyclists were still under Yugoslav Cycling Federation (BSJ). President of BSJ forbade Slovenia to organize National Championships, but they did it anyway. A day later BSJ annulled by their opinion the "illegitimate" event. But Slovenian Cycling Federation recognized it as official.
