You go, baby.

You know what I just decided? I’m cool with just sitting here in my chair watching the eventing live stream rather than going out there and trying it myself.

Obviously this is what they mean when they talk about teamwork. Good call, USA.

Buck Davidson had a great dressage trip, and it’s still raining. Neither of these things surprise me.

Except apparently on the beach for today’s endurance race, the sun was shining!

A bit of cross discipline fraternisation over cocktails. Reining versus dressage #WEG2014

You say this like it’s a bad thing.

This is oddly evocative of the Tour de France…anyone else seeing it??

Hey, if nothing else, the WEG has got the most unique garbage pick-up system ever.

It would be nice to tweet about the sun setting on day 1 at #WEG2014 but the black clouds are gathering AGAIN #WetWEG pic.twitter.com/MDVtYdFxDx

And this is why they call it “endurance.”
