Climber/sailor/kayaker/mountainbiker - depends on my mood and what the weather is doing. Wind, rain, snow, sunshine, just get me out there!! Not keen on the great indoors (and that includes walls!). CC member since 1997

Interests Outside Climbing
Mountain biking, sailing and kayaking all began because I got pissed off with the UK weather. Why let rain stop play? First love is still climbing, though the other stuff has taken on a life of its own. If the weather is good enough to climb, that's what I'll do, otherwise ..... bring it on!
