you mean Australia? Cycling in most places outside maybe of Canberra is a masochistic deathwish.

It's the same in most of NZ, unless you're lucky enough to find a cycleway. :magnifying_glass_tilted_right:

Did anyone watch the Heavyweight boxing final? The Russian Gadzhimagomedov got beaten 5-0 by the Cuban la Cruz.
I will have to find a replay.

Not in Brisbane. Heaps of those bloody cycle paths. Still doesn’t stop the Lycra clad piston wristed gibbons from using suburban roads.

Modern Pentathlon is weird, I like the combination of running, swimming, shooting and fencing, but why would you have riding there, when the athletes are randomly allotted the horses - way too much luck involved. The German leading athlete has just lost her almost guaranteed medal because she couldn't get the horse to work, and she was crying her heart out before and during the attempt.

The chance that your horse has already been taken for an earlier round by a worse rider who has barrelled through several fences.
Although the event is based on an officer escaping from behind enemy lines and stealing a random horse.

@rancid-schnitzel where I lived in Brissie, cycling on bike paths earned an immediate ute-chase from unemployed bogans. In 100% humidity. Great times.
