Summer Paralympic Games Paris 2024

I know the Paralympics aren’t well… let’s just say one of most popular sporting events on here, but seriously it would be quite helpful if we had separate threads for each sport, half of the time I don’t know what sport/event users are talking about 

 

If not having time creating all of the various threads is the issue , then you can always ask me to do it

Do you really think tiny wee Neil Fachie was contributing as much to that tandem as Olympic Silver Medallist & human mountain Craig McLean back in the day?

Yes. McLean was just the pilot not the rider who determined the speed of the bike. Indeed Fachie has gone faster with smaller pilots than he did with McLean. The tandem bike can only go as fast as the slowest of the two riders.

Nerve wracking win for defending champion Phoebe Paterson Pine in the women's ind compound archery event. Needed to get 10s with her last two arrows for a wafer thin 142–141 win. Raining at the venue which isn't making things any easier.

Probabily most theared will remain almost empty. I like the one-theared solution.
