Van Avermaet is a classics rider as well, he's more used to long long days and recovering in downtime during the race. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ironically a footballer would have got 10 for artistic impression had the same thing happened. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted August 7, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted August 7, 2016 Rowing now cancelled due to high winds. No shit. Having competitive rowing on what is effectively entirely open water between a series of mountains and hills is going to get windy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avfc96 Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 A few things to have happened over the past few days. -Portuguese education minister mugged at knifepoint -Thousands of empty seats across various events. -Two staff members of the Aus rowing team mugged at knifepoint. -Rowing cancelled for the day because the venue is unsuitable due to high winds. - Photographer robbed of $40,000 worth of camera equipment in Rio. More and more problems and issues to follow over the next few days I feel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, it was a bit further down the hill, on the opposite side. Similar bend, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
