The race will also start in Trogir 45 minutes later than scheduled...

The second stage of Tour of Croatia kicked off today, but due to the change in weather conditions, there has been some amendments to stage two.

Today’s second stage, which was supposed to finish with a 29 kilometer climb up the 1762 meter high peak of Sveti Jure on Biokovo, will no longer be the plan. Due to bad weather conditions (specifically snow), the stage will be shortened and today's finish line will be Vrata Biokova at 820 meters. The stage will be now be 107.7 kilometers long, instead of the planned 123 kilometers, with a new start time in Trogir at 14:25.

Television coverage of the race will broadcast on the previously announced schedules.

The third edition of Tour of Croatia started on Tuesday from Osijek to Koprivnica, and will end on Sunday, April 23, in Zagreb.
