Paris Olympics 2024

You could clean up at the fair with that kit.
Also, shouldn’t all the shooting medals be won by the USA? They have more than one gun each on average.

Lots of guns, not much skill or accuracy though.

Or patience.

Don't give the guileless IOC any ideas.
LA2028 might introduce an assault rifle class to the shooting events.

Had the telly on in the background before the ceremony and this lot were getting interviewed, I was disappointed they didn't make an appearance.

Do you reckon shooting as a hobby has as much #buyer vibes as cycling

A close friend of mine is a Team GB rifle shooter. It’s not nearly as buyer. Once you get good enough you do get to go to the rifle factory and pick out your particular rifle out of a batch though, similar to how some top level musicians get to.
The clothes and shoes are meant to hold you super stiff and still while you aim and are extremely expensive. And of course you have to buy all of your pellets/bullets and it really really adds up if you are training all of the time.

TT appears slippery.

(And I'm not referring to aeroz)

Can’t believe it’s a lovely sunny day here in South London … and Paris ? …. miserable as sin …. feel for the riders …

Oof, tt rider off three times isn't good

Oof even the mechanic stacking it

some of the riders having proper nightmares on the women's TT in the rain 🫣

And the mechanics!

😬

Triathletes lol

course looks really bumpy as well, the french rider's computer looked like it was about to come off.

Ah crap Kopecky is down

Coverage not great with random captions and timechecks

Eurosport seems better

Well they should be seeing as they own the rights now and free to air channels in Europe just get to show the crumbs they're given.

eurosport has ads though...

The difference between Silver and Bronze. Ooops.

Eire in the hotseat!

Tarling mechanical
