Didn't Chris Froome do that?Logic-is-your-friend said:I seem to remember someone falling off the starting ramp, a few years ago? I guess that might lose you some time.
Coz we talked about it here.Danskebjerge said:I couldn't find any main thread in this forum for Tour Of Norway?
Yeah, but since the race combines the old Tour of Norway and Tour des Fjords, it's a pretty big event, and most races of this size get their own main thread. Even the smallest one day races in Belgium seem to get their own thread. Maybe it's because the Norwegian race is so far to the north that many don't care?RedheadDane said:Coz we talked about it here.Danskebjerge said:I couldn't find any main thread in this forum for Tour Of Norway?
Well, nobody got around to create a thread. And apart from FB live broadcast it wasn't really shown on international media, so... bit hard to watch.Danskebjerge said:Yeah, but since the race combines the old Tour of Norway and Tour des Fjords, it's a pretty big event, and most races of this size get their own main thread.

The problem of hosting a stage race at the same time as a Grand Tour ...RedheadDane said:Well, nobody got around to create a thread.

Frankly it didn't deserve it's own thread. It was a horrible borefest with 4 sprinters in the top 5 of general classification. On top of that, the supposed nearly worldwide broadcast they boasted on their website, was nowhere to be seen. Their youtube channel didn't work, and only the last 2 stages appeared on their facebook.Danskebjerge said:Yeah, but since the race combines the old Tour of Norway and Tour des Fjords, it's a pretty big event, and most races of this size get their own main thread.

Yes, in the broadcast it was shown from both the finish line camera, a camera after the line and from a helicopter.Logic-is-your-friend said:Is there other/better footage of the crash than this?

Not only that, but the way they are placed, in a way that there was ALWAYS someone going to end up running out of space. The barriers don't follow the natural flow of the bend.Vesica said:Those types of barriers should be banned. Absolutely ridiculous to use them at the finish of a cycling race.
