The Olympic cross-country course is officially open for walking! Our friends at the Horse & Hound have published photos of every fence on Sue Benson’s beautiful Olympic track. As we saw at the test event last year, the Greenwich course is going to be defined by undulating hills, tight turns, and Sue Benson’s classic commitment to technicality. Add 50,0000 spectators packed into an already tight cross-country course and the riders should prepare themselves for an experience unlike any other. My first reaction to the photos: riders, get ready to ride some narrow fences. Check out the fence by fence photos:
