The thread of all Olympic Threads

[Honey08]

Thank you. You must be sick of telling us!

 

[Peregrine Falcon]

Oh no

 

[Michen]

Yikes. Came too quick?

 

[teapot]

that's the German team medal dissapearing in the distance

 

[piebaldproblems]

I look away for one second and Wahler's off!

 

[KEK]

Omg!!

 

[lannerch]

Ong Germany out

 

[jenbleep]

I know riders will be warming up but will other riders feedback re: the ground? Or at least to the riders team?

For safety!

 

[Honey08]

Oh heck. Is it a German rider on the floor?

 

[ihatework]

Wow, poor Christoph and the German team

 

[Equi]

The horses arse went out from under him

 

[fidleyspromise]

Yes Honey. Pecked in the ditch.

 

[Peregrine Falcon]

that's the German team medal dissapearing in the distance

Too unsporting to like that but.....

Glad both were unhurt though.

 

[Michen]

My stomach is in knots about London and Laura soon!!!

 

[Landcruiser]

I look away for one second and Wahler's off!

Me too!

 

[Honey08]

Don’t even say it until we’re safely round! (About German medals disappearing etc)

 

[piebaldproblems]

Masterful by Kevin McNab navigating that slope.

 

[ihatework]

So easy to have a whoopsie.
I have to say I don’t like this 3 per team all to count format

 

[teapot]

My stomach is in knots about London and Laura soon!!!

Crossing everything and then some

 

[Equi]

Can they close off a section of it becomes dangerous or will they halt to fix?

 

[Peregrine Falcon]

Why is it just down to the riders to take care? It's down to the ground jury too surely?

 

[piebaldproblems]

My stomach is in knots about London and Laura soon!!!

At least we've got enough penalties in hand that they can take some long routes if they need to. I suspect they'll go left in the drop like Tom did.

 

[Parrotperson]

I look away for one second and Wahler's off!

Me too I had to rewind!

 

[Peregrine Falcon]

And another slip coming out of that section.

 

[Parrotperson]

Can they close off a section of it becomes dangerous or will they halt to fix?

They could but I doubt they will. It should be an easy enough fix.

 

[Michen]

I’d be so furious if I was a rider and they weren’t fixing it, not only if it caused penalties but very valuable horses where an injury could occur that was avoidable.

 

[Equi]

Safe ride suzie

 

[teapot]

@Kat - the US Gymnastics team got your stars memo

 

[Equi]

Oh dear.

 

[Peregrine Falcon]

No, I hope Kevin's horse is ok
