Sputter no more..... I have returned Well, while I am ailing I hve found creative ways to cope (Bock Beer Opening). That didnt go as planned, too many people and walking such a distance wasnt a great idea. This injury definitaly affected some muscle. I hope I can heal quickly. Fatoomchk: Give ma another week and lets try and make some time. Any location will due.. Sungam: If you find yourslef in the upper bavaria reigon (Oberbayen, Frankenjura) of Germany, we can do some skiing and snowboarding, hopwfully somewhere in the Alps. What do I do ? I work in recreation directed to a very special group of individulas. Hiking, Biking, Kayaking, Climbing, Bla.. Bla... Bla... Bla.... I am a recreation programmer. As good as it may sound in theory, it leaves me with some questions pertaining to the direction it will take me... Bis Spater gents.

Some lurking from me the last months. but not a lot to mention. A bit of climbing in belgium, good temperatures and conditions are there. But not a lot of energy to go to my max. Next week a day mor in belgium, then 3 days of bleau (anyone around for a meetup?) and the week after that 10 days of bouldering probably, or is someone free to hook up for some french tufaclimbing?

hmm i´m exploring the Barcelona scene - and the next couple of weeks all my ´newly usual´ partners are out roadtripping etc. so if someone happens to be around - give me a shout! Otherwise, North of Spain is a big rock paradise for those that did not know with lots of jewels - ranging from 9b sport to 500m walls 10 min from the car ...all year round! cheers, j.

It's been raining sideways here for 2 weeks straight. Usual weather for October-November. So, yeah, it's pretty much indoor season until the snow and/or ice happens to come along.

I'm just out of shape though because I hadn't climbed in about 6 weeks...
