Re: Re:
Previously it was alleged/stated that the municipalities that host the stage starts/finishes would provide more than half of the funding (55 million of the total budget of 90 million DKK), the state providing 17 million DKK, the involved regions 15 million and the remaining 3 million from various sponsorships.

Re:
As as Dane Im very excited about it, but I still have some skepticism about starting abroad in 'uninteresting' countries like Denmark. They don't have too much to offer cycling wise, but a time trial helps and if we see crosswinds on stage 2, thats better than most Grand Départs anyways.
They pretty much finish the second stage just after crossing the bridge, so thats pretty interesting.infeXio said:

Let's start with seeing what Dimension Data does this year.
But of course, he might remember that he's old within the next two years.

Re: Re:
I'm quite doubtful in regards to Nyborg hosting the finish of stage 2, as the previous plans had the stage finishing in Odense, which, distance wise, would make more sense as well, as the municipality of Odense was set to provide 10 million DKK in funding.
As for the second part of your post, I couldn't agree more.

If only I/we had money for such space! I am but a humble university student of working-class parents, aspiring to become part of the well-off middle-class
Actually there is a big possibility, that Nyborg will host the stage 2 finish. Odense municipality has to cut spending, because they didn't get permission, as they had hoped/expected, to raise taxes for financing more welfare. Nyborg, on the other hand, has stable finances, and I just looked up, that the renovation of the medieval castle and its surroundings is expected to finish in 2021. Perhaps a coincidence, but the timing would be perfect. A lot of attention from all over the world to showcase the city as "Heart of the (Danish) Realm" and the medieval castle, so to strengthen the expected UNESCO World Heritage Site bid, which will encompass the castle as the former residence of the king and the city centre.

Re: Re:
I stand corrected then! Just seems odd, but I suppose they can find some more flat roads between Roskilde and Korsør before heading across Storebælt then.

Re:
The third day in Jutland could have provided us with an Amstel Gold Race-type of race if the finish - not the start - had been placed in Vejle. As it is, everything indicates that breakaways will have a tough time during the stay in Denmark. Still, I will look forward to the finish in Sonderborg on day 3, hoping the organizers will choose the same final kilometers as on stage 2 in the Tour of Denmark 2016:
