Our best BiH cyclist won another 250 UCI points for the World ranking list.

"The start of the race was at an extremely high pace, but I felt very good so I was waiting for my chance to attack, which came just before the end of the race. The second victory in a row in the World Cup races shows us that we are on the right track, also The European Championship is in two weeks, so this victory gives me a great dose of self-confidence, "said Njemčević.
