Climbing - 1st proper climb I've done in years - Jean Jeanie on Trowbarrow. I did not enjoy it at all - I hate the thought of falling off far too much. VS 4C - felt much harder as is very polished vertical limestone. Above the first difficult bit I hit the 2nd bit and wanted to go back down! problem was it involved a swing if I fell off and I didn't like that thought but had to finish the climb or I would have given up climbing forever! so direct lined it up the face instead (harder but less swing) creating a new route :-P

Ride from hayfield with bedders - along sett valley, up lantern pike, down to sheepdog trials field, up to shooting cabin, down to res, up to underneath low end, down track from jacobs ladder, elle bank, back to hayfield. Good to get out around kinder, not done much from home! Was bedders regular route as it turned out!
