â€œI know, why don't we do the esoterica section of On Peak Rock in one day?â€

sounds like a laugh. I nearly wet myself when i read they were on about doing speak the truth as one of the routes as its now E7 but they sadly copped out onto private targets. :thumbsdown:

The best thing about this article though is they started at 0730 in the morning and finished at 12:38 at night. Not because this is a very long time to be climbing, but because 12:38 is in fact the next day, so they didn't actually suceed in doing them all in a day, and they don't seem to have noticed - GUTTED. Back around boys, back around. ::) ;) :lol:

::)

I did 100 routes last night.

Actually I planned to do 100 routes last night, but only did one because it was too hot and I bouldered instead.
