OK, after 2-3 mediocre (compared to 2004-2006) seasons, Marit Bj rgen
skipped the Tour this year, and it seems to have been a very wise decision:

2 Gold and one Bronze is pretty good after the first 3 races, right?

By coincidence this is the same medal collection as Sweden, who got all
of theirs before the first Norwegian Gold, including the biathlon gold
which all the sports reporters had already awarded to Emil HS even
before the race. :-)

Terje,

I am probably loosing something in the translation of the Afterposten
explaination about Petter's skis:
"Aftenposten har fått informasjon som tyder på at Northugs Fischer-ski
har gått gjennom en slipemaskin som trolig utelukkende har vært
benyttet på Madshus-ski."

Why whould the Fisher skis be damaged by a grinding machine set up for
Madshus skis? Did the Afterposten article really refer to the Fishers
needing a different grind for its flex pattern?

On a different note, it looks like third place Olsson was holding
Norwegian Madshus skis.
