Olympic athletes "lost" on bus
Two-time world 400 metres hurdles champion Kerron Clement got a less than favourable first impression of London this morning as the bus taking him to the Olympic Village struggled to find its destination.
Um, so we've been lost on the road for 4hrs. Not a good first impression London.
From @KerronClement on Twitter:The American, among hundreds of athletes from across the world arriving in the capital this morning ahead of the Games, claimed the bus had been lost for four hours.
Athletes are sleepy, hungry and need to pee. Could we get to the Olympic Village please.
