Memorable Climbing Moment: |
Probably topping out on Ray's Roof for the first time as all those years ago I never thought I'd be good enough to do it. Nowadays.... it doesn't even seem hard any more! Now, that is weird. |
Climbing Heroes: |
Tom Williams - the man who originally got me into climbing and who taught me never limit yourself even when you're bricking it. And Pete Whittaker for being really psyched and constantly reminding me that nausea when climbing is not a bad thing! Oh and Scotty Burke for thinking that a man can change his Ape Index by stretching - legend. |
