Hi Simon, yip, long time for sure. I've been in Joberg for the last 4 years but moved back to CT in Dec. Been riding social competitive for the last 12 years, did the Epic, Sani2c...doing wine2whales in Nov. I will put the road bike away after the Argus and haul out the mtb.

Climbing, no, but getting itchy fingers, I'm keen to get back into trad and do some easy routes but my heart lies with bigger peaks and endurance mountaineering but we will see ;-)

Yes keen to come to Tradathon, but no-one to go with. Might just pitch up for a look-see.

how you doing, it would be cool to see you again after all these years.

Hi Simon

I am struggling with the marketplace. I want to buy the Black Diamond Icon Headlamp, but when I click 'submit' to send the email nothing happens. Please let me know how to proceed.

Hey,

Thanks.  

While I"m an Aussie I've recently moved to SA for work so looking forward to getting into some adventures over here.  I'm based out of Jo'burg.

A friend from Durban put me in touch with you guys, I think you know her, Cath Hughes?

Looking forward to getting involved more soon.

Tom

Hi Simon, thanks for your comments.

The Edge is a great idea, it is nice to have a place to “chill” with like minded individuals. 

Many thanks, Shayne.
