Paris Olympiad 2024

Snooks I love your Paris Olympic avatar. Is it a torch or an image of a woman's head. Once you see it you can't unsee it.

Yasmin Harper and Scarlett Mew Jensen going for Team GB in the 3m Women's Synchronised Diving final. And it's a BRONZE medal.
Rare for GB to win a medal on day one but most welcome.

Well done ladies

It is a logo symbolising three things in one.

A gold medal, an Olympic flame and a woman.

The womens cycling time trial is proving rather tricky due to the damp conditions.
Poor Taylor Knibb of the USA has gone down numerous times already on a challenging course.

Mens time triallers also competing later today.

Anna Henderson has claimed a superb SILVER medal for GB in the women's time trial.
Terrific performance .

Men or Women??

^ Mens.

On the go now is the mens road time trial with Josh Tarling competing for GB.

I am expecting a podium from Josh today. But then he had to have a bike change which has cost him precious time.
