As you guys probably know now (and if you don’t, what the fuck, are you not on social media??) - I am living with the in-laws way down in Gilmore, which is pretty far south Canberra (You thought I was far south before). This really limits a few things, like riding to work. I am trying to make the best of the situation and have noticed that it is stupidly close to Hume (5 minute drive).
What’s in Hume apart from industrial buildings? Indoor Rock Climbing! Has anyone been to this particular gym before? I am thinking about getting a 3 month pass. Would anyone else be interested in joining me at nights for some climbing and hanging out. Hanging out at the in-laws is going to do my head in.
I’ve done a bit of climbing at Hume and also Mitchell. Took the boys there too. Hume is better, but out of the way. There’s also a structure at the ANU.
But as I’ve done most of my climbing outdoor back in the Pyrenees I find it hard to get into the indoor climbing stuff. And knowing that occasions for climbing outdoor are scarce, I haven’t pursued it further. Got some gear at home.
I’ll join you if I can find a way out there (can’t be bothered riding home late at night).
I climb 2-3 times a week at the ANU indoor wall ($50 bucks for the year!) which isn’t as nice but is cheap and a great community. Plus I get the opportunity to set my own routes if I want.
Would love to check out the bouldering cave in Hume or Mitchell.
