this is another attempt! only a few holds so far, but they're nearly all the bleaustone training ones which i think are really good. Anyone living near Bradford on Avon and keen to train pm me (i have no friends).

Just a quick heads up to the West Yorks/East Lancs training massive. The YWYTBTWWSNABFTB?IDIRFD as detailed below:
Name; "You wasted your time building that when we still need a bedroom for the baby? I despair, I really fucking despair......."
Location; Todmorden (just below Bridestones)
Steepness; 25 degrees, power monkeys need not visit....
Grade Range; Oh about half a dozen...
Size; 2.4m wide, 3.9m high (ish)
Vibe; This is my church, climbing is my god, kneel at my altar...
Pictures/Video;

Other facilities: Punch bag, campus board, screaming baby, mental dog, toilets, shower, coffee, tea, TV, music, a wide selection of power tools.
Contact: Me.

Is now sporting a strong 40 degree look. I know this isn't as steep as the bumpy boys like it but it's still all the same holds as were on it when it was a 25, and lots of them were poor then. I'll sort out some up to date photo soon but it's an alternative plan if anyone gets rained off Bridies.

Oh yeah there's lots more holds on it than in that photo.

P.S. We still need a bedroom for the "baby" (who is now two and a half) :-[

I feel I have to post about my visit today with Matt to Broughton after we were rained off early in the Peak.

We warmed up on the resin wall jugs/flakes/tufas then set about the 20/25 degree slopey pinches wall which was lovely. Moved on to the 45 board and were impressed by the width which allowed brutal links.

We finished off on Sector 3 which had some truly awful grips and felt just like climbing at Rubicon  :thumbsup:

Keen for some more Broughton action this winter, just gutted it isn't in Liverpool  :'(

You fucking muppets.  After you texted I carried on and arrived in Hathersage at half ten; sun out with a nice drying breeze. Climbed for seven hours in at times near perfect conditions (especially after three when it clouded over a bit).  Hundreds of people out climbing at Stanage and you punters went to the wall.

The lesson learned today is save the petrol and just go to the Temple. The Peak's overrated, busy as, and too long a drive... ;)

As promised, some photos.

This side view shows how much steeper the board is, the missing area of the side panel is the increase in angle, obviously I'll be filling that in. The board might not look like it's quite 40, but that's a bit of an optical illusion, the "vertical" board to it's left is actually 5-10 degrees overhanging.

And this is the leaning mass of the board, it turns back to a slab for the top 40cm or so. I was a bit worried that if it stayed as a 40 all the way up I'd be missing the mats if I fell off the top. Obviously the top needs boarding out but the existing board is still over 3.6 metres in length, more than enough to fit a few moves in (assuming I can pull on).
