Strenuous lower half, particularly pumpy placing the crucial wires, delicate top half, becoming increasingly nervy as the gravity defying overhangs begin to prey on the mind...!

The Pylon King - Lead O/S - 17/Apr/08 with Brian (bpm climb)

Good independent start, but the higher you go the closer it gets to Social Criticism (which has better gear). This makes it feel a bit eliminate.
bpmclimb - 2nd rpt - 16/Apr/08 with Mark

To round off a fun day of repeat ascents! This one felt easy for the grade. I didn't find it necessary to place any wires blind as the guidebook suggests.
