JLS

My name is John. I was born towards the end of 1966 (you do the math). I am very boring and can provide written testimonies to that effect if required.

I think we all know that it's about the grade. Grades are forever, small changes in brain chemistry soon dissipate.

Anything that descends into name calling and acrimony.

Interests Outside Climbing
Er... I really am very boring. However, I've started again doing a bit of (velodrome) cycling after long break from once being a keen road cyclist.
