The popularity of road cycling in Norway has grown dramatically in the last 20 years.
Today was the BIG EVENT for more than 10.000 participants who attended in Norway´s second largest bicycle race. It starts at Egersund and 91 km. later it ends outside the Culture House at Sandnes.
Well done!
We call it a "half century" here (ca. 50m/80km. Cool!
