The course for the Team Time Trial included a very steep short climb that will be catching out riders for the entire week of racing in Bergen. Only the Junior Women's course will skip this climb, all other races (and racers) will have to face this on race day. As FDJ Novelle Aquitane crested the climb, the rider at the front looks over her shoulder to make sure she has a minimum of three others with her at the summit. In this TTT, the time is taken when the fourth rider crosses the line. The team is comprised of six riders giving two riders the option of dropping off of the group. There are many different strategic methods on how to approach expending riders, apparently, FDJ was hoping to keep everyone together.
