The city of Horsens, which is currently hosting the first leg of the Giro D’Italia, has been in shock since yesterday when it was announced that its mayor, chairman of Local Government Denmark and a former minister of six portfolios, Jan Trøjborg, collapsed while on a cycle ride outside the city.
Tributes from across the political spectrum have been flowing in for Trøjborg, 56, who was a prominent Social Democrat.
