During the Tour of Fjords, the organizers of the 2017 UCI Road World Championships have announced the details of the elite men's individual time trial. According to Cyclingnews, the ITT will finish at the top of a 3.4km-long 9 per cent climb (Mount Fløyen).

"We are really happy that we can present this today. It will be one of the most scenic and spectacular finishes of a time trial event in the UCI Road World Championships," the head of the road department at the UCI, Matthew Knight, explained. 

Harald Tiedemann Hansen, the president of the local organizing committee Bergen 2017, adds:

"The view from the top is breathtaking, and we are really proud to be able to share this with the international cycling fans. Fløyen is the biggest tourist attraction in Bergen. This will be Bergen’s equivalent to the famous Alpe d'Huez climb."
