You can just about see me halfway up the trail...the worst thing was that I was going the wrong way. Someone thought it would be funny to tell me that it was where we were going and to laugh at me busting a gut in the 20 odd degree heat! Yeah, hilarious.

The Lakes....

[gairym]

the above photo made me think of another of mine that suits this theme.

I'll call it: 'The tail-end of a bugger of an 8 hour climb in Austria'

First post on here I think..long overdue )



Pushing just below the col Anterne on the GR5 in the early morning, after a wrong turn meant carrying and pushing most of the afternoon and evening the day before from 500m upto 2400m. To add to the struggle I had a mild case of the 5h1ts from a dirty water bottle. The ride got better after that.
