| | RIDE UNDER THE FJORDS! Course Announced for the 2019 Haute Route Norway. |
|
Following the multiple course announcements for the 2019 Haute Route Cycling Series last week, details of another event follow today with the announcement of the 2019 Haute Route Norway (August 2nd-4th) course. Starting 292m beneath a Norwegian Fjord, the course for the 2nd edition presents several new features as well as many of the roads that made it such a popular event last summer. A one-time only affair, the Haute Route is extremely lucky to be able to start the first stage in the Ryfast tunnel before it is opened to the public later this year. |
|
Based in the seaside town of Stavanger, Haute Route Norway is the ideal event for riders looking to discover a vibrant new cycling destination as well as riders looking for their first Haute Route experience. Starting in the Ryfast tunnel (the longest undersea road tunnel in the world at 14.3km in length) under the Fjord on the first stage and at the foot of the Lysebotn climb after a ferry ride for the second stage, the event is guaranteed to deliver memorable moments. |
