The Avon Gorge Revival Project

IMPORTANT: A date for your diary. Martin Crocker will be presenting his proposal for an Avon Gorge regeneration scheme at the next BMC meeting. If you climb at Avon and are only going to attend one BMC meeting this year it should be this one. In fact if you were not planning on attending any BMC meetings you should still attend this one!

Please come along, have a beer or 6 and support Martin's proposal.

Avon & Cheddar Area - Fixed Gear Fund

I have emptied out my tea bag pot and established an "Avon and Cheddar Area - Fixed Gear Fund" collection pot in the shop. Money collected will be spent renewing pegs and bolts in the area. If you are clipping fixed gear locally you really should be putting some cash in this box, it will keep us all safer and will help to restore routes which at the moment are almost unclimbable.

Please bear in mind that pegs cost about £6.50 each, expansion bolts £6, ring bolts £8 and glue-ins £10. Replacing fixed gear can get very expensive very quickly.
