Note to self: need to buy new rock shoes as my current tight-ish pair are really not ideal for long multi-pitches that have easy foot-holds anyhow. (Nick also complained about his feet hurting but only after we'd topped-out, he is probably so focussed while actually climbing that he doesn't feel pain)
So it was a great route even with painful feet, although way too busy - this is a route to try when weather conditions are less than perfect (drizzle could be nice). There looked to be other decent routes on the crag that aren't on the big 'tick lists' so definitely will be worth coming back whatever the weather.
Fell off my bike on the way back, it has slick-ish tires on that are great on the road but not so great when cornering at speed on a dirt-track. Fractured 2 molars but brain seems okay, if anything I think I've actually become smarter - so that's my medical recommendation for this week. The bike is totally wrecked.
