Cool (no pun intended). You riding the Giant?

I am getting more and more intrigued by this race. I traveled briefly in central Norway a few years ago (driving from Ostersund, Sweden to Trondheim) and I know what spectacular country it is. The challenge, the uniqueness, the natural beauty. Hm, maybe someday.

cool stuff :d

Nice landscape!

It looks like there is a guy in white-blue-red Spokesman Bicycle outfit (1'05" and 2'46" into the video). That bikeshop is 2 blocks from here. Do you know who that guy is?

who the crap on slowtwitch knows Norwegian?

Those of us who are norwegian. No one else I would think. The swedes and danes understands us though. Sort of.

You don't find the video?

Bent Olav Olsen, recreational triathlete?

It`s Arild Tveiten from Norway. One of Norways best triathletes ever, with IM PB: 08.51.

He did not have a good day, but came of IM Germany where he did 9.16 and qualified for Kona.

Have no clue where he got the suit from:-)

Thanks for the video link

Almost. It was a water-start, but we had to jump 2-3min before the gun. They also had an option from the side off the boat that was not so high. But some off the athletes on the side was still innside the boat when gun went off:-)

Get the cool outfit from my sponsor: Pearl Izumi. I'm not sponsored by Spokesman. Actually I haven't never been in she shop.

Now I'm looking forward to a race in better climate: Hawaii here I come!
