#in today's drama: the norwegian cycling federation is so broke they can't afford to send a team to euros#so they've cut a deal with uno-x to fund the national team at that race#great right?#except the roster that came out a few days ago is ENTIRELY uno-x riders and the ds will seemingly also be from uno-x#and the thing is uno-x has been super open about doing this bc they want the uci points for their wt bid next year#and the alternative is seemingly that norway just doesn't send a team which is obviously not great#but um. a few conflict of interest bells are ringing here. just a few.#and like euros this year will probably be a sprint so kristoff is their best option anyway#but imagine being hagenes or foss and getting selected (though they weren't) for euros to represent your country#only to find out that you're basically riding for a trade team disguising itself as a national team
