We'll give you a fight for that gold with Niklas Larsen, Frederik Madsen and Casper Pedersen.

And we're really missing Salzwedel as well. He really meant a lot to our team!

Haha ... i was just dreaming, although we could have a great team in the future with:

Weinstein (1994): 2nd at 2016 world championships in the individual pursuit, has a PB of 4:17.775

Kämna (1996): 2014 junior world champion and 3rd at 2015 u23 world championships (less than 2 weeks after his 19th birthday)

Appelt (1997): 2015 junior world champion in mens individual time trial and junior world champion in mens individual pursuit (3000 m) with a time 3:15.432 (6 seconds faster than the second place finisher)

 

Your team is far more realistic to fight for gold in the future and i just hope that someone will end the british dominance, it would be even better if a country like Denmark or Italy would be able to do it, so i wish your team a lot of luck and hopefully they will stay injury-free for the next couple of years.

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

yes it definitely is :d

 

btw a little off topic. whats the reactions in IRL about the O´Donovans ? Are the party started in the irish pubs ? :d

 

The party is on without a doubt :d. Everyone is so happy about our first ever medal in rowing. The studio commentator was crying after the race, then I was crying, everyone was hopping up and down.... my nephew was waving the Ireland flag up and down and getting his first taste of great Olympic memories :)

 

This was the reaction out in Rio among his family and fans, and similar scenes were had throughout the whole of Ireland :d

 

 

 

And people celebrating at home as people gathered to watch the final....(play the video in the link)

    • Unfortunate, but it doesn't change the fact that I'm looking forward to Thursday evening, when the team captain's meeting is over and we have our very first World Cup start list of the season. Always a cool moment to see who's there and everything  
    • Today I unpacked some of the boxes in which we have put my way too many books to move to our house, and I came across these beauty's I hadn't seen for a while     Absolutely recommended, tough to get for a decent price, but they are such an interesting read with lots of very interesting little stories! Still looking for at least 1900, 1904 and 1906, but not really in the right moment to spend money on that now, so the wait goes on  
    • Which I guess is part of why unfortunately 'our' first wild card attempt of the season was rejected last week  
    • The next chapter in the Krasnobaeva saga is upon us.   Looks like  Armenia have cut ties with her after only a few weeks. A person from their Federation has said, that they won't continue the relationship, because of her unprofessional and rude attitude towards the coaches and other officials. That includes: - having no respect to the coaches and their advise; - training without any motivation; - stops doing the routine and throws objects without any reason; - just lays on the floor and ignores the music.   When this was escalated with her mother, she mentioned that "Elvira has a strong temper and she was the same in Bulgaria and they tolerated her". Which of course is complete BS. If anyone attempted this shit here, they would be thrown out immediately.   And now  are wanting from her mother to return all finances they gave them, which she is refusing, so they will probably sue them. They will also inform other RG Federations about this situation, so they don't hire them.   My 2 cents on this is most likely Krasnobaeva was happy in BG and was forced out by her mother, so now she is sabotaging the move and be done with it.
    • Honestly Ruka is my favourite World Cup event of the whole season. Everybody is there. Later on there is always someone who skips one weekend or another . Not everybody takes part in Tour de ski. But here everyone shows up.
