From June 12th to 16th, the peloton will compete in the Tour of Slovenia. This race has seen a rise in popularity in recent years thanks to emerging stars from the country. It also serves as a key preparation race for several riders gearing up for the Tour de France. Let's delve into stage 2 with a preview.
Stage 2 will be a tricky day. In the hills of Slovenia the peloton will tackle a 7.6-kilometer climb at 6.3% which can open things up, but the last kilometers of the day features a lot of small ascents where an attack can take place at any moment.
