Beam 2 is through!

And just like that, beam 2 has completed its first circuit of the LHC. That's it, they've got it clockwise and anticlockwise (counterclockwise for the Americans in the readership). The day has been an official success. What a relief to all the beam guys who have been sweating bullets for a few weeks now.
