What are they peddling? In other news I’m watching the female triathlon. Currently on the bike leg. Roads are a bit slippery so a few unintended dismounts.
Saw a lad from Gateshead get a silver in the BMX freestyle, very entertaining to watch. The racing is also very good, similar to the Winter Olympics where the snowboarding events are my favourite. Tried watching a bit of the skateboarding but it seemed to just be a load of blokes falling over, I appreciate it's a higher level of difficulty but it's not much fun to watch.
Good interview with Kieran Reilly (lad who got silver for BMX freestyle), seems to have a good head on his shoulders.
Yes, I was worried with him being from Gateshead and his dad wearing a scum top in the qualifying round. He came across very well. GB doing well.
Ridiculous isn't it. Already failed a gender test but allowed to compete in the women's event. Italian lass got a broken nose apparently. They should all refuse to fight him.
Has it been proven that this individual is male? The usual whoppers on twitter making this a trans issue (which it isn't) but from what I can see this person was cleared by the IOC to fight. There's an obvious physical mis match, but it's not necessarily Khelif's fault - I've seen people online saying "he's a man who likes to beat up women" which is really unnecessary
