On my way to Denmark, the German police checked several arriving passengers far more thoroughly. I'm sure it was a complete coincidence that these passengers were people of colour ... 😇 #AaLborgK
The passport control on the platform at Flensburg station is a farce: Police are standing at the train doors but only looked at the disembarking passengers with little interested. I made a point of showing them my passport anyway. #AaLborgK
Special moment at the 🇩🇰 men's road race podium: Since the recorder wouldn't play, the crowd came together in singing the national anthem. #DMugen #AaLborgK
Søren Kragh solo on the final lap, Mads P has jumped across to Casper Pedersen and is sitting on, ready to pounce if his @lidltrek.bsky.social teammate should be caught. But with 18 seconds in hand I think it's Kragh who will win. #DMugen #AaLborgK
2 laps to go, 17" between Casper Pedersen & Søren Kragh in front and the chasing quartet of Kasper Asgreen, Mads P, Albert Withen Philipsen & Henrik Breiner. 🇩🇰 #DMugen #AaLborgK
Still VERY windy. Mads P has promised that he will jump into Limfjorden from the jumping tower atop the bridge if he wins ... the men's race has completely exploded. #DMugen #AaLborgK
Amalie Dideriksen (Cofidis) easily won the sprint for 2nd. Solbjørk Minke (Uno-X) 3rd, Caroline Bohé (Ghost) 4th. #DMugen #AaLborgK
Greve still ahead going into the final lap. Bragh at 1'00", group of three with Dideriksen (Cofidis), Minke (Uno-X) & Caroline Bohé (Ghost) at 1'10". #DMugen #AaLborgK
Greve (Uno-X Mobility) was 26" ahead of Bragh and 1'22" ahead of the peloton with 2 laps to go. Can she hold them off to win the 🇩🇰 elite AND U23 titles? #DMugen #AaLborgK
Greve has dropped Bragh who is now 20" behind. Peloton at almost a minute and suffering of "G2 syndrome". #DMugen #AaLborgK
With 3 laps à 6.7 km to go for the women, Alberte Greve & Christina Bragh were in front, Johanne Resen dropped at 17", 'peloton' of 21 at 50". #DMugen #AaLborgK
30 km to go in the women's 🇩🇰 championships. Break of 3 (Alberte Greve, Christina Bragh, Johanne Resen) have a 38" gap as the peloton is splitting into echelons. #DMugen #AaLborgK
Noah Lindholm Møller Andersen (Grenke-Auto Eder) is the new 🇩🇰 men's junior champion! #DMugen #AaLborgK
Noah Lindholm Andersen (Grenke-Auto Eder) with one lap to go. He's going strong, the chase group is 38" behind. #DMugen #AaLborgK
Earlier this morning, I scouted the finish. Sweeping right-hander with 140 metres to go, small kink to the right 35 metres from the line. Strong wind from west (left on finishing straight), you'll want to hug the barriers on the right side in a sprint. #DMugen #AaLborgK
I'm in place just behind the finish line on the Limfjord bridge. As you can see on the flags, it's blowing several pelicans today! Junior men on lap 1 of 3 of the finishing circuit. #DMugen #AaLborgK
This is the #DMugen finishing circuit in #AaLborgK. Up and down, lots of turns, and the finish line atop the ramp of the Limfjord bridge: ridewithgps.com/routes/51475...
The juniors rolling across the finish line in the neutral zone, crossing the Limfjord bridge for a big loop before returning for 3 laps of a 6.7 km circuit in Nørresundby & Aalborg. #DMugen #AaLborgK
Saturday evening in Aalborg: The 'studentervogne' with this year's 'studenter' (high school graduates) celebrating that they've finished school (with lots of beer) are roaming the streets. #DMugen #AaLborgK
Speaking of @domestiquecycling.com, here's Gertrud Riis Madsen's story: www.domestiquecycling.com/en/news/loca...
#DMugen #AaLborgK
Last but not least, I hitched a ride behind Mathias Bregnhøj who's visiting from Asia where he's normally racing for 🇲🇾 Terengganu. More about him on @domestiquecycling.com next week ... 🤫 #DMugen #AaLborgK
And it gets even better: Gertrud Riis Madsen wins the 🇩🇰 U23 ITT title! The Aalborg crowd was cheering her like crazy on the podium. #DMugen #AaLborgK
Rebecca Koerner (Uno-X Mobility) is the new 🇩🇰 ITT champion! Local hero Gertrud Riis Madsen (Team Aalborg Sparekassen Danmark) wins silver by two seconds ahead of Emma Norsgaard @lidltrek.bsky.social #DMugen #AaLborgK
Upset in the making at the women's 🇩🇰 ITT champs: Gertrud Riis Madsen caught 3 riders and set a phenomenal time. She'll be beaten by the pros, but Rebecca Koerner was faster than Emma Norsgaard after 17.8 of 26.8 km. Live timing: www.sportstiming.dk/event/15455/... #DMugen #AaLborgK
