Gold Medal ‘Gramming: Reliving the European Championships through Social Media

Hands up if you haven’t recovered from last week’s Longines FEI European Eventing Championships yet.

Two hands up if you feel like you might never recover.

Throw everything you’ve got in the air and wave it around like you just don’t care if you’ve been crying into a stein of Becks and stuffing bratwurst and Milka into your face since Sunday night, in a desperate attempt to feel whole again.

In the grand spirit of squeezing every last drop of emotion out of the week that was, we’ve been scouring the dark depths of the interwebz to find a million and one different perspectives on Luhmühlen. Featuring absolutely bloody everything that Ireland’s resident comedian Ciaran Glynn posted this week – and trust us, this post is worth it just for his interviews – plus contributions from fans, riders, grooms, support teams, and, okay, our own Instagram, this bumper collection of ‘Grams will have you laughing, crying, and joining us for bratwurst before you’ve even finished scrolling. Just don’t forget the face-paint.

Pony Alert 🚨! LuhBerry and SAP Berry – together with many riders and fans – are supporting Hannah‘s @willberrywonderpony Charity. Willberry was the companion of young British Eventer Hannah Francis who sadly passed away from bone cancer in 2016. Prior to her death she founded this charity to support cancer research and fulfil last Equestrian wishes. You can support as well by donating online, e.g. via our Fan Apps @spectator_judging or @equiratings. You can also post on Social Media – maybe even with your own Berry. When using the hashtag #willberrywonderpony on Twitter or Instagram your posts will be shown on our @luhmuehlen Social Media Wall. If the winner of the #feieuros2019 eventing has their Berry strapped to their shoulder @sapsports will kindly donate 500 Euros to Hannahs charity in their name. Good luck to all riders and be curious about the Pony Actions 👀 in Lumühlen!! You can purchase a Berry-Pony of your own at www.willberrywonderpony.org #willberrywonderpony #kickingcancersbutt #inspiredbyhannah #cancerfighters #willberrywonderpony #kickingcancersbutt #inspiredbyhannah #sapsports #sapberry #spectatorjudging #equiratings #eventer #eventersofinstagram #eventers #eventersdoitbetter #eventerinthemaking #eventersofig #futureeventer #eventer #Vielseitigkeit #vielseitigkeitsreiten #crosscountryhorse #crosscountry #eventersofig
