I think the one rider was trying to set up his teammate, but then he didn't realise that he had already attacked on the other side of the road.
And the argument between the two afterwards was also entertaining to watch.
What's the chance of echelons today? The 40 km long Holmsland Klit isthmus is one of the best places for crosswind racing.
Asked the DR sports commentators about the climb. Let's hope it gets through. Dimen 2022...and of course Vejle talks are in effect. Don't care bout it, gimmie Dimen laps.
It looks like the first stage to Esbjerg will have a strong SW wind and rain. Will it be enough W to cause echelons or will it be too much of a headwind?
Does Denmark not have any hills at all?

Important information. I remember you could send in route suggestions on their official website. I'm planning to do it again. If they are arriving via Aalborg Airport, we could do something like this:Considering they are riding though Aabenraa during the TdF, I doubt they will be doing it next year, but fingers crossed!
Actually I wouldn't be surprised if they won't be going through Southern Jutland at all. A stage in the North, a stage to Aarhus, a stage to Vejle, a TT on Funen and then a sprint on Frederiksberg Allé. It could also be only two stages in Jutland and another one on Zealand (possibly including Asnæs Indelukke), but that will also depend on whether there is even going to be a TT.
Important information. I remember you could send in route suggestions on their official website. I'm planning to do it again. If they are arriving via Aalborg Airport, we could do something like this:
Stage 1: Aalborg - Aarhus (Sprinter stage with a hilly twist)
Stage 2: Horsens - Vejle (Puncheur stage)
Stage 3: Kolding - Aabenraa (Northern Classics stage)
Stage 4: Funen ITT (10-15 km)
Stage 5: Korsør - Frederiksberg (Sprinter stage)
Good-neighborly relations, inter-tour rivalry, who knows...By the way, why are they always inviting a random Polish continental team?
Worre was clearly afraid of Purhøj. A Strade Purhøj.They never go to Horsens. It's only good enough for the Giro
http://www.climbs.dk can give you an idea

Cav's only demand to show up: No Horsens.I guess Cavendish does not mind that they will not go there, though...

Well, it's hillier than most of The Netherlands but can't compete with the Limburg province.I started to understand the Danish topology when I read that there is a discussion whether the grave-mounds should count as mountains. The country is flatter than the Netherlands...

Yeah. Even if wouldn't have any impact, it's worth a visit. Just for the visuals.. Mariager is one of the most picturesque towns.I'm not sure Aalborg would pay for it, if they don't get a stage finish though, but you could easily start in Løgstør, Aars or Støvring for instance instead. It won't really matter cause they obviously want the stage to be decided on the circuit in Aarhus anyway.
The cobbled climb in Mariager will possibly also be used again soon.
