RE: Do you watch the Olympic Games? (in reply to Piwin)

Anyone remember Vicente Gómez?
I recently purchased a vinyl record of his for $4.99 at a record shop out here and it was signed by him. I'll take a photo when I get home, I was going to ask if anyone knew the person it was signed to. Can't recall the name now....

Total face palm for that speed climbing clip - where's the adventure, spirit and soul in running up a kids route?
Back to the Rio... my cousin's daughter is in the same gymnastics club as gold medalist & world champion Max Whitlock. She got photos of her daughter in the club, with Max, holding his medals from the World Chamionships and Commonwealth Games. Brilliant photos - her eyes are popping out of her head with excitement
RE: Do you watch the Olympic Games? (in reply to Dudnote)
Nice videos. I agree. It's definitely more enjoyable "in the wild". I always dreamed of doing an 2-day climb. The idea of sleeping hanging off the wall is so crazy though. I've done a few "orientation races". Not sure what they're called in English. The ideas is to race through the mountains, usually it's about a week's race. You get an old army map and a compas but no GPS or anything. Most people run once they've got a good grasp of where they're headed, but some just do it as a fun hike. A 100m sprint just doesn't cut it next to that IMO.
Gymnastics: remember this guy?
