Get well soon doucebag!

Jens...it's way more than just diet. I eat ice cream evey freaking day. Long story I'll tell you about it sometime. Anyway, train right - stay away from campus boards. Stop doing pull ups. Train your core, and dont miss your plastic workout.

hmm..I was just in New York City and brother there are little to NO bicycles on the road for good reason - they'r targets. When I see bikes in the morning on very congested roads with everyone only focused on their make-up, latte, celly, balckberry or wacking off I have to admit that's taking your life in your own hands. Sorry for your crash..rant on.

Truer words have never been spoken. 8D

Awwwwwesome! (but I hope no one is injured!)

I'm saying it was all bad. Just, they don't have what we do. btw - I used to work as a Rocket Science Project Manager. These guys were at the top to the geek food chain, with T-shirts that said "Yes I AM a Rocket Scientist"

I just returned from a week visiting family and friends in New York City. OMFG what a place. I thought I was in the Godfather IV late one night in Little Italy at a hole in the wall (absolutely awesome food!) restuarant when some guys in suits escorted this guy out who looked very scared where ever he was going. Stayed in a hotel that overlooked Times Square. Can anyone identify the smell of the subway? The women are so HOT and friendly. But bottom line. No mountains. No easy access to climbing. Sure they have the Gunks. But I think we have it all right here. Hail to the NorthWest

If anyone has climbed at the Seattle vertical World, well he designed the place. The guy can climb that's fer shur. (Kev - you really crack me how much of a tool you are!!! Keep up the good work hahahaha)

I've been in what you call phenominal shape as well, and convinced myself I was on the cutting edge of training. I was staying away from anything "unnatural" or from anything that had "chemicals" so as not to hurt my body. Yeah body fat was at minimal levels and had wonderful benefits. But I couldn't keep up with it and it seems that the folks I know who've had the same experience have something that breaks the cycle of training. Mine was getting married. Your's was getting sick. The funny thing...I've put on (what I would call) a few extra pounds but I feel so much better. Rest, a balanced diet and a stable life has served me well. Good luck.

You're a doucebag dipshit. I've inspired myself for many things.

I was bored after a run yesterday and sat down to read Alan Watts guide to Smith. Totally motivated me to climb. Best guide written. Made me think...when I first began climbing I was inspired by Dick Bass climbing the seven summits - I immediated put together a climb of McKinley and Aconcagua. Nelson's first guide came out and I nearly climbed the entire book in a couple of years. I read an article in Climibng about awesome peaks in Peru so I went there for three months and knocked off loads of climbs. I talked to some friends as they trained for a 50 mile, then a 100 mile run - so I was inspired to run a marathon. What get's you going? Just talking to the phat man RuMr helps keep me motivated to climb hard.....

Thanks for the input. I was hoping for lots of moderate and a few 12's. I think I'll be calling in sick next week for a day up there.

TOTALLY agee

I didnt' know that? hmm..any updates?

I haven't been there in years...is it worth the drive for a day? Any good routes?

That's way to funny! I used to be a pipefitter for the natural gas company. So many reasons why shit blows up.

The Rumr posse is have a Smith climbing trip this spring (can't wait). Anyone up for a Skaha or Squamish long weekend with the kids?

Shut up doucebag

I hate those gay wanks at the climbing gym that seem to think that traversing under a roped climber is OK. Then they get bent out of shape when I tell them to go around. Or how about those gay stanky wanks that boulder with bare feet...gross...

The second pitch is generally unprotectable, so that's nothing new. It's also fairly easy with great views.

Hey phat boi. I'm slowly building one. My 3 year old daughter climbs on the easy wall. Right now it's kinda lame but I'm adding to it, it's awesome to rol a couple of problems doing laundry or working on some home projects.

Messner would skunk House hands down...how many 8000er's has House solo'd without oxygen?? bah ha ha Ever heard of Steve Swenson doucebags???? Yeah Messner is/was THE man (he even was a rad rock climber before the toes were cut off) but all around. Hands down Steve is DA MAN
