Marathon Franja BTC City has been a competitive recreational cycling event since its establishment, uniting riders of all levels in a two-day cycling festivity with a vivid animation program and cycling fair.
Marathon Franja Barcaffe was premierely organized on 22nd July, 1982 by Slovene cycling club Rog (Rog at that time was a well established bicycle manufacturing company). Organizers back then decided to name it after World War II hidden hospital (now protected as a war monument) which the marathon passes on its way, thus paying tribute to the bravery of medical personnel, taking care of wounded Partisans and allied armed forces.
