Is there anyone here considering going to Rio in 2016?

As a result of the Olympic experience in London this time around? Has it or the stories of certain athletes captured you to the extent that you'd like to be part of it again?

I know i'll miss it when it comes to an end. Four years isn't exactly round the corner and Brazil isn't either, equally it is long enough away to plan for.
 
Always planned to pay a few weeks in South America, would be the prefect time to go. I'd imagine tickets wouldn't be as in demand as they were here?

We don't know what they'll do to encourage attendance by then, however Brazil doesn't have a tradition of being successful in and following a wide range of Olympic sports.

Football and the equestrian events they will have as targets no doubt, perhaps our Brazilian natives on th Caf might educate us to the others?
 
I would be wary of Rio TBH. The fun of the Polemics is soaking up the atmosphere. Not sure Rio's high crime rate will allow you to move around safely enough.

Will be more terrorist vulnerable I would have thought too.
