I have been climbing since 1994 recently had a 5 year break as I broke my leg falling of my MTB (all my friends have been advising me to stick to climbing...) As I'm originally from Poland I don't have to much experience in Britain. I did a few climbs in Snowdonia on Lliwedd and Tryffan + some in Alps. And I still race MTBs as my leg seams a lot better :)
