Good article, certainly attainable. Welly Crack at Ilkley has to be the target route though :rambo:

It's Chalkstorm at the Roaches for me. Even though that has a bit of grade argument over it.

You could lead Chalkstorm before this Pembroke if you wanted!

Possibly, I just don't want to die though!

OK, re-phrased: I don't want to seriously injure myself! ... E4 is out of my league atm, and a bit scary. :pale: :shaking:

don't be ridiculous james, you won't die. That break looks like it was made for a big cam or two!

If you get to e3 though, I'll have to as well, so don't you go climbing without me!

Don't bother with Chalkstorm, Obsession Fatale just to the right doesn't have any gear either and is only a little bit harder.

Don't sell yourself short James. 5c slab moves by this time next year is a bit of a wank goal. If you want a slab as your final target try Wings of Unreason instead!

Poseidon adventure at Bowden Doors. Look it up on UKC, it definately won't be downgraded.

Some cool climbs recomended. :) All added to my wishlist on UKC LOL. New target: Wings Of Unreason, looks bloody scary! :shaking:
You're quite right, Chalkstorm is a bit rubbish, however it does look fun from the bottom. It's still a long way to go though from just breaking into HVS!
