Arctic Race of Norway

Some coverage of this race appeared on my DVR.

So, I'm watching and similar to Le Tour and other race video coverage, they will have aerial shots that pull back from the ride action to reveal scenic views, quaint towns/buildings and many times, race fans perched on top of overlooks, etc.

So, I'm watching and observe what had to be the weirdest pull-back shot ever... not sure what the heck is going on here. (sorry for the crappy cell phone camera capture)




Anyone else see this? The woman was slowly dancing and holding what appears to be... a large fish (salmon I'll guess). WTF

Nice. Better then the TV helicopters taking footage of each other in the Vuelta the other day. Haven't really watched the highlights for this race.

I'm frustrated that you're watching this on NBCSN yet it doesn't show up in my Gold streaming account? C'mon NBC!
