It was, Gareth
Great route by the why, wouldn't mind having a crack at doing it in reverse, and I don't mean driving backwards
Is it do-able? Someone said you had gone up Roych Clough before. If you are annoying me, just remember it takes 42 muscles for me to frown and only 4 to extend my middle finger, and I'm lazy so don't be offended.

my ascent is 3.30 in - but plenty of fun in this video - you'll also see how BAD the top of Pindale was too back then

That link to the video is still not working, is it located anywhere else? If you are annoying me, just remember it takes 42 muscles for me to frown and only 4 to extend my middle finger, and I'm lazy so don't be offended.
