Hey Mick,
How's the weather over there? I hear Russ got you good style when he called you at your new regular day job... lol!
Oh, yeah... Never heard of Freerider, can't say how many hands have touched it. Sounds good though.
Take care,
Rob

He did the bastard.....good style.
He said, in a woman's voice (which I swallowed hook line and sinker) that he'd ordered some prints of someone sucking womens toes on the deck of a bar.
I even went to look for them, checked the database for the name he gave me......then it suddenly clicked who it was and that....it was me who had sucked the toes!
I'm so gullible, he's so sophisticated and a damn good actor.
So....FreeRider.....how many ascents? Come on Chris Mac you're a walking encyclopedia of El Cap!

Weather's dirty Rob....f*#kin freezin one day, snowing the next, warm the next.
Xav got his tongue stuck on a metal lampost whilst waiting for the school bus this morning.
Don't ask me why....I haven't taught him to french kiss lamp posts.

Alex Huber, Tomas Huber, Dean Potter, Steph Potter, Andreas Muller, some Austrian guy, Rob Miller, Nathan Martin, and I'm sure a few others have all freed it.

This is a good place to start:

However, I'm pretty sure it is incomplete.

Oh yeah, funny thing last spring in the Valley, it seemed like everyone and their brother was "workin' freerider", then by the end of the season I only heard about a handful of successful ascents...I'm sure it will be that way for a long time to come.

I talked to a couple of the Touchstone course setters who worked it and sent it this summer. Pretty impresseive juggling work and commuting to the valley to send it.
