Whatever the details, it's a real tragedy and chilling stuff. We need to wait for whatever full report / court case before confirming anything. However, as others are saying this is why routines and checks are vital on these things, and not left to human chance.

Just spotted your reply. For me I found therapy didn't work at all - I just ended up focusing on the problems even more but I appreciate it works for many. I'd try and find new stuff to do - new hobby, classes, walking groups etc. Something to shift your focus elsewhere. Not sure how you are f...

Looks like you might have got that early, the page at the end of that link seems to have been turned off now.

I've found Melon Alleycats really good, but my current faves are Dirtlej Photchromics, which were a half price bargain - and I know they're good, because i don't find myself taking them off, which in turn means I haven't lost them yet (I'm down two pairs of Alleycats)

Blimey that's an old boot. Rock looks amazing though   Off to Arco on Sunday.... Unless the Dollies forecast improves hugely.

Even at go ape, it seems to be standard (or was a decade+ back) for one person to get you in the harness and the second person to verify it! At a site in France the heights involved are about 3x that of go ape & they just send you off on your own, instructors aren't even in view all the way ...

Yeah, and let's not forget that it's because he cocked it up during practice at Suzuka, losing control at the esses trying to match Piquet's lap-time and spun it into the barrier. Like Piquet said; Stupid.

I’m at the start of the West Highland Way - all gravel bike friendly until Inversnaidish... Couple of years back we saw a group of about 12 gravel riders very much enjoying the gravel bike friendly West Highland Way on gravel bikes - the Fort William to Kinlochleven bit (going North to South). ...

There's some chap on YouTube who's just done the WHW on a Brompton* *G-line, but still. And he had some sort of shoulder harness arrangement for the inevitable portage.
