Effort Simon! Heard a load shout of "Fuck!" from my hiding place over the valley in the Back Street Mime Artist cave (just left of All Quiet on the Eastern Front), so popped my head out in time to watch you doing the top big. Fine effort.
Those lime projects all sound a bit pedestrian after WSS. You should try Tarantula at Nuda's. Superb intricate moves and a line up a feature, the best 7C on peak lime IMO.

Not been - Nudas stays dry doesn't it ?

[Bonjoy]

Yeah stay's dry and doesn't seep really. Does get condensed sometimes, but the walk in couldn't be shorter and it's a lot nearer sheff than most lime...

Finally, after a long wait scraping money here and there...

Mind you don't rip the throttle off! Nice beast beast.

[boulderingbacon]

Try riding that with two pads on your back. :-)

Nice bike NIbs - can't beat a two stroke 

Had an original 350LC in the 90s, even had a coffin tanked and race tuned RD200 back in the 80s... Yamaha made some sweet engines. Enjoy!

[Nibile]

Cheers guys!
I really can't wait to ride it properly, but have to wait for my new helmet to be delivered, and then it'll have to pass the usual controls. Under the seat there is, as most of you will know, a big compartment in which I'll carry all the climbing equipment I need: chalk and BM hang times!
I've been looking for a bike since December, was after a nice Yamaha 400 '79 cafè racer, but was too expensive. Then I thought about the bikes I loved and never had when I was 16, and there you go!
Can't wait to show off in front of the Court of Justice building.

Finally we discover the identity of the super hero Beastmaker Man, after nibs slips up on a forum post.

Shhhhhhh! Don't say it. I may actually go climbing on rock tomorrow. How will it affect Monday's deadhangs session?
 

[JackAus]

On a related note to Nibs... I just got my motorbike license... Hopefully a bike will be on its way in the next couple of weeks.

[stvey1987]

Is this how it works with a bike licence? As soon as you pass 'they' send you your first bike in the post!?!? 

If only I'd known before learning to drive a car and forking out for one myself!!!

[cha1n]

After a ridiculous siege, Fourmis Rouge went down today!

Lessons learn include, don't try sloper problems in the midday heat and being tall isn't always so great (getting the high foot was the crux for me).

Now for the other three!

[Richie Crouch]

Good effort, really good problem to do

Big boss is good but a bit spoilt by the encroaching rock. Found tristesse desperate compared to the former 2!

[ducko]

Smacked a goose in the abdomen

[cha1n]

Thanks Rich.

I agree regarding Big Boss but I've been given some beta that allows me to not touch the block but it involves a heel-toe near the arete, hope it's in!

Ironic thing is that Tristese is the one that people seem to turn up and do really easily but I can see how it'd be difficult if you're tall. I've only had a quick play at the end of a session.

[a dense loner]

Weird i've never seen anyone do tristesse easily. Then again i've never seen anyone do big boss without the back ledge

[Johnny Brown]

I have. You should hang out with bespectacled midgets a bit more Dense.

[Nibile]

Mixed moments as of late, fingers wise:
1. NNFN injured right middle hitting a hold;
2. YYFY seemed to heal fast and fine;
3. YYFY nearly one armed left middle mono on BM;
4. NNFN re-injured right middle one arming mono on BM;
5. YYFY seems to heal fast and fine;
6. YYFY hit PB on BM incut rung yesterday, 16 kg LH, 20 kg RH.
I am nuts!
 
 

[a dense loner]

Careful on that mono nibs, I tweaked my left index a while ago and it still felt ok to pull on just a bit tired at the bottom of forearm. So for once I let an injury heal ie I mean I trained all other monos, that I train, just not that one. It was fine about 4 mths later, and came up to the level of my rh in a few wks

[Nibile]

Yes, I know. The second one was really a close call. I felt strong so I gave it a go... Could have been a bad one.
Strangely it's a bit dodgy openhanded and fine half crimped. It's also true that I did not try to half crimp the BM mono...

[Fultonius]

YYFY found a new (for me), really nice granite boulder area about 20 minutes down the valley.
NNFN spent a while working "White 15" (there are circuits marked on the boulders) to come back and find it was......Font 5+ 

Beautiful venue though - some amazingly well featured stones for granite.

[SA Chris]

Medonnet? Or Plaine Joux?

Just bought one! Pick it up on Saturday...
