Backstage Pass 1

Check out Stage 1 Race Results here

We love Backstage Pass. Sure Tour de France is business, but these behind-the-scenes glimpses always give us an idea of some of the fun and banter that's had every now and again by the Orica-GreenEDGE team.

If you’re not already then friend BikeExchange Facebook to make sure you hear about anything new landing on this channel.

Today in Stage 1 we hear from Team Director Matt White and the boys about the Time Trial course. Low on corners and high on flats, it's agreed this is a pretty safe course and will be good to give it a solid nudge.

We see massive numbers of supporters line the streets in Utrecht, Netherlands, and meet India's biggest Orica-GreenEDGE fan, who's gifted some French food to the team and prompted Matt to invite any other fans to follow down the same path. So if you're reading this from Netherlands, you should swing on by with some Poffertjes.

As the boys prepare for the race there's plenty of ice jacket action, with Utrecht putting on the kind of heated conditions you'd expect from Tour Down Under.
