Wheelin' free in the north east.




Between light showers we nipped up to Sarclet, about 5 miles south of Wick to squeeze in a few more climbs before the forecast rain set in. Another extensive venue, this time a sandstone / conglomerate mix-up had Al and Gill raving enthusiastically about quality climbing. I couldn't climb, I had a strained toe. NO LAUGHING, it's sore.
Anyway after that we fancied some cross country mountain biking which we got at the excellent Highland Wildcat trails around Golspie. We rode part of the black run there which was absolutely superb, although I really should wear a helmet for that sort of carry-on; there's definite potential for high speed tree interaction.
Back at home it's time to get on with some admin, sit it out and wait for some more dry weather and generally prepare for summer climbing work.
Rock climbing courses and Cuillin Ridge traverses are on throughout the summer, so if you'd like training or a guide please drop me a line.
