On Saturday, a large number of buses will roll from Hedemora<\/span><\/span> to Lugnet<\/span><\/span>. The goal was, of course, to support the town\u2019s favorite son, Edvin Anger<\/span><\/span>, in the World Cup sprint. But even though Edvin is ill, they are coming anyway.
– The turnout and the interest are enormous, says Fredrik Anger<\/span><\/span>.<\/p>\n

For the third year in a row, Hedemora is turning out in force for the World Cup competitions in Falun<\/span><\/span>.
– We\u2019re heading off with several buses from Hedemora on Saturday morning and expect to arrive at the entrance to Lugnet around noon. Then we\u2019ll march, dressed in yellow T-shirts, into the sprint hill to be ready for when the prologue starts at 1 p.m., says Fredrik Anger, who is the project manager for the initiative and also Edvin Anger\u2019s father.<\/p>\n

How many people from Hedemora will be at Lugnet?
– 350 people have signed up and want to come along. A number of business owners in Hedemora have helped sponsor the buses. We see that we\u2019re attracting many people who aren\u2019t particularly interested in skiing. They\u2019re young people who think this is a cool event\u2014groups of friends, families and die-hard ski fans. And this is important ahead of the 2027 World Championships. We need to attract people with the party and the on-site experience. They get the skiing as a bonus; otherwise, it would just be us ski fanatics in the stands, Anger says with a laugh.<\/p>\n

– The engagement in Hedemora around this is enormous, and a sprint on a Saturday afternoon is perfect for us. An important part of organizing the buses is that we travel together, not least for environmental reasons. It\u2019s much better both for the environment and for community spirit if we go together. After the competitions, we\u2019ll head back to Hedemora for apr\u00e8s-ski and a live band at Hedemora Stadshotell, says Fredrik Anger.<\/p>\n

And Edvin Anger truly appreciates the support from his yellow army along the course:
– It\u2019s indescribable to race in the sprint hill and in M\u00f6rdarbacken at Lugnet and more or less be carried forward by the yellow wall, says Edvin Anger, who adds via social media that he hopes the yellow wall will now cheer on the other Swedes\u2014and that he himself might show up in the sea of yellow.<\/p>\n
