Kristijan Koren (born 25 November 1986) is a Slovenian former professional road racing cyclist, who rode for UCI Continental team Adria Mobil.

During his racing career, Koren won the Gran Premio Città di Camaiore in 2010, and the Slovenian National Road Race Championships in 2022.[5] He also served a doping suspension between 2019 and 2021, for his involvement in Operation Aderlass, an investigation into the practices of German physician Mark Schmidt.

Career

Born in Postojna, Koren turned professional with Liquigas–Doimo, a UCI ProTeam, in 2010.[6][7] He remained with Liquigas–Cannondale for the 2011,[8][9] 2012,[10][11] 2013,[12][13] and 2014 seasons.[14][15]

Koren signed with Cannondale–Garmin, a UCI ProTeam, for the 2015 season.[16][17] He was named in the start list for the 2017 Giro d'Italia.[18] In 2019, Koren was banned for two years after it was found that he had doped. The discovery was part of Operation Aderlass.[19]

Upon the conclusion of his suspension, Koren returned to professional racing, competing at the Tour of Slovenia and the GP Kranj in 2021,[20] with the Slovenia national team. He remained without a team until the following May, when he joined the Adria Mobil team ahead of the 2022 Tour de Hongrie. The following month, Koren won the Slovenian National Road Race Championships, after an attack 13 kilometres (8.1 miles) from the finish.[21] It was his final victory, as he announced that he would retire from the sport at the end of 2023.[22]

Personal life

Koren previously resided in Budanje, Slovenia.[2][23]
