How did i not know about kayak cross? Literally cyclocross in a boat. Instead of going over a barrier, you have to barrel roll under a head level bar. Well worth a watch (finals tomorrow) ---

I didn’t know either. Explains why he finished so many places back ---

Well worth a watch (finals tomorrow) Given my experiences the 3x I’ve been in a kayak on any sort of fast moving water, I’d have to say I’d probably be great at this sport. Zero issues rolling over on absolutely anything that has a touch of whitewater in it ---

Canadian pronunciations were killing me (do these guys not watch cycling, or do all cycling events in Canada get covered this way?), but no commercials was great. Excited for the women tomorrow. ---

I read that Remco had just seen a moto board that said 25 seconds gap, so you can imagine the panic at that point. Well done for him and I love The Pose at the end. ---

Interesting situation for NED….they have Vos in the break, but they would clearly rather have Wiebbes up there (or at least another ride to help), so they are chasing the break with 40km left. ---

I cannot believe they sat up like that. Kopecky not confident she could close it and still win the sprint? If she had followed, she still might have lost to Vos but I would bet she’d at least be in silver.
