Last year the cyclists passed on a sunny day.
Today it was rain and not so many people around watching.

Anyway, this is just a glimpse of todays cycling tournament with 21 nations participating.

Tour des Fjords 2016

Yesterday afternoon I got a glimpse of Tour des Fjords.
It is an annual bicycle race between the cities Bergen and Stavanger,
here on the western part of Norway.

What a number of motorbikes, (some with camera people!!), police, ambulances, cars with bicycles on the roofs, helicopter flying low, and all the people watching along the route. It is a huge event that goes over several days. Do take a look at: www.tourdesfjords.no

The weather was perfect!
Alexander Kristoff (from Stavanger) won, as he also did in 2014.

Last year it was Marco Haller (from Austria) who won.

They are both representing Team Kathusha from Russia.
