Luhmühlen: a place of hopes, of dreams, of ill-advised lederhosen on very sweaty days. Du bist das Gelbe vom Ei. We will be sad to see you go, but if some of your uniformed riders are anything to go by, happy to watch you walk away. You have been a place of merry lunacy and jolly good sport, all wrapped up in a bun and served with sauerkraut. You have also offered us a marvellously luminous arena surface, which lent itself to pure joy as we photographed an enormously enjoyable showjumping session. And so, dear chums, dive into an image gallery showcasing the goings-on in Germany today. It’s been emotional.
