Climbing this week.

Here we are almost two months into 2016 with lots to look forward to. We have dates set for outdoor trips and a whole week for part of August in an as yet to be decided location, but possibles could be north Wales or the Lake district.

We have a new shiny graphic for the club made by a talented graphic artist LT.

We have started the Monday group again so anyone who wants to train more than once a week can come along on Mondays from about 7pm.

Wednesdays still has a strong core of regulars and a steady influx of new people wanting to try it. There are new arrangements for anyone new to climbing and wanting to try it out. Those that do should get sorted at the reception where you will need to ask for a harness to use for a free deposit.

We also have weekly challenges we set for ourselves if anyone wants to push themselves. They are not always straightforward but they are interesting and you will need to think and have some determination. This week is feet only on the slab in the corner left of the door. Previous have been chimney without holds.

This coming weekend will be more rerouteing. The bouldering cave will be getting a strip down, paint and re route, so anyone who can come help out can. Any help will be appreciated.

I’m back training again after my hernia and elbow injury and I aim to get as strong as possible and I have loads I want to do, inside and outside, if anyone wants to join me.
