It’s began on discovery+

I hope the pontoons don’t cause an issue!

 

[Tiddlypom]

My Discovery + says XC coverage starts in about 1 hour 50 mins, so at about 11.20.

Like super sized “bridge” obstacles in TREC. Us treccies would love them

They are starting now, live

 

[Northern Hare]

Thanks all, I've just found it by selecting "schedule" on Discovery+ for today. Otherwise my main choice was saying 11.30am. Phew!

Good luck to Team GB today, and I hope the HHO'ers have a great day watching!

 

[Dam1]

Mines on now (discovery plus) started 9.20

 

[teapot]

It’s started, bang on 9.30am so matches the start time pdf I posted

The course is gorgeous! Helps that the weather looks lovely too.

 

[Peregrine Falcon]

Looks lovely setting. Watching on d+ but have wired it to TV. Got up early to do ponies so all sorted for the day.

 

[OrangeAndLemon]

My God, those crowds are immense!! Well done to the supporters for getting themselves there.

 

[Tiddlypom]

Phew, thanks for HHO advice, am in now.

 

[piebaldproblems]

Good morning to everyone else who's spending another day ignoring their to do list!

If I was brave enough and had the horsepower that would be a stunning course to ride

 

[piebaldproblems]

Krajewski made it look like she wass going around a BE90. She rides so beautifully.

Wondering if Virgil will pass the trot up tomorrow. A lot of legs being left behind.

 

[ihatework]

What a beautiful course. Just stunning.
Julia was the perfect pathfinder.

 

[airliner]

Wow what a turnout! I think the nice weather helps, but still!
I am a bit nervous about how the course will ride… lots of efforts in a twisty turny layout. Here’s to a good and safe day of sport

 

[OrangeAndLemon]

Worried about the ground too. Some sections under the trees are looking like they are cutting up.

 

[Parrotperson]

What’s with the gates at the end?

Rather makes it look like they don’t what people to see.

Not sure that’s a good look.

Julia made it look simple!! Pretty sure it isn’t!!

 

[Equi]

Sarah is away like a rocket!

 

[teapot]

Definitely think time will be a factor given the ground and drying weather. Shadows potentially too

 

[jenbleep]

The ears on Sarah's horse! What a beauty, just loving life

ETA Action Lady, felt bad I didn't know her name

 

[jenbleep]

Good morning to everyone else who's spending another day ignoring their to do list!

Was meant to go for a run this morning

 

[Northern Hare]

What a stunning course!

And the 3D camera footage is unbelievable!

So pleased the weather has improved for competitors and spectators today.

 

[Parrotperson]

That penalty clock started before 9.02 for Shane. Odd.

 

[teapot]

Julia got 4.80 time and she’s not slow so gives you an idea

 

[Parrotperson]

I have a slightly cross jrt on my lap

Walk? What walk?? It’s x country day!!

I have a flask of hot chocolate, biscuits and a chocolate bar.

 

[KEK]

Looked like a bit of a battle between Virgil and Shane. Love Sarah’s horse!
