    Call yourself a cycling fan, you should be ashamed.

    After using the minor races in Italy, France and Belgium to warm up, this is where Eddy Boss will step up to the plate and deliver that elusive big win.

    Sky ought to give me a PR job.

    Is being shown in Norway.

    Might be worth surfing the Euro-feed channels - see if anything comes up. I think google will be your friend for this one.

    Iain would need a whole new classification of sub-chipper to include this race on his charts.

    It's still the second biggest stage race going on at the moment though despite what the Yanks might think ;)

    Victory for Ahlstrand!

    Who?

    Of team Cyklecity. And good enough to fend off Petacchi and that coffee man, Boasson Hagen.

    The difference is that they're getting medical attention by competent looking professionals.

    We better unlist the "New Eddy Merckx" crown from eBay. Tour of Norway, the boy has redeemed himself!
    Fckin' Quintana … that creep can roll, man.

    Russ Downing picked up the final stage win for Endura too. Which is nice.
