If you're comfortable with Tuolumne climbing and want to do a moto trip there for the weekend, let me know.

I'd like to get into climbing, but alas, I weigh 230.

If you want to start climbing, don't let that stop you.

I used to climb with a heavier guy than you, though climbers in that weight range are uncommon.

I'll bump this thread.

I was surprised at how much crap I could get into my bags. I had shoes/chalkbag, but not rope/rack for this trip, and I could have left a case behind if I wanted, and still had nothing strapped on the outside--but I appreciated being able to easily lock away my riding gear. Carrying rope/rack between two bikes wouldn't be a problem.

Pics parked in the sand at the Tuolumne Meadows campground--note the rock under the stand:

Kinda hard to make out, but see the vertical marks in the tank bag under the word Icon? Bear claw. I got off easy compared to the wagon parked a car over from me...

i have never climbed before, but am very interested in this sport. Never got the time to get some kind of formal training? do i get counted then?

btw - you plan to get into Tuolemne via Sonora Pass? Tioga Pass is still closed.

i will ride a 07 Honda ST1300A
