WorldTour teams hit the roads of Bergen, Norway on Saturday to recon the World Championships team time trial parcours.
Defending champions Quick-Step Floors made their final run-through of the lumpy course ahead of their bid to hold off the likes of 2016 runners-up BMC Racing, who enjoyed a visit from Thor Hushovd before their trip around the route. T
he former world road champion – and Norway native – retired as a BMC rider in 2014.
