After an evening of over eating and drinking by rights i should have been a basket case today. However under the guise of going for a walk with Orla I managed to get to the boulders while she spinked. Minto at the late starting time of 2. After a quick lovely warm up and with some reservations i turned to bmx and promptly flashed it, even finishing with the left hand. Psyched I went down to egg ss, tried it a couple of times from standing, then linked it in from the ss, absolutely grovelling the finish. First time ever, chuffed. Realising i had caught Someone off guard here I headed for Pascal's where the run of top outs stopped dead. However I did after some false starts work out an approach that gets me to the triangle. Instead of locking into the high right elbow and crossing through, keep right foot below the good foot hold, left foot flagging out left and left hand in high side pull and go again with right hand for the left most end of the ramp. Hit it but did not hold, it'll go with better skin and some work. Real pleased.
Must do something about how often skin seems to be the deciding factor in finishing stuff.
Woman on her own asked if I'd like a bunt at pascals, i struggled to say something and came out with "maybe later". fortunately she had already passed so i didn't see her face. i should give ped lessons.
