I drive; you lead!
I'm dying to get back into climbing, but am far from being able to lead trad.
I am very comfortable on 8s, probably okay following on most 9s. Happy to drive us to the Gunks on weekends this spring and any day in the summer!

Hi Jenny ~
I don't need a ride, but I'm in the Gunks every weekend, and many weekdays, from now until November. My usual schedule is arriving Friday 1pm and climbing until 3pm Monday, but there are infinite variations to this.
I'm coming off surgery so currently my leads are limited to 5.5, but I've been up the last three weekends and I'm getting stronger, so I'll be leading 5.6 probably this weekend (May 9th).
It's Friday morning and I'm about to head up (from Manhattan), so I won't be back on climbnyc til Monday, so if you're looking for a partner this weekend, call me at 646-229-1301.

ps - sunday is mother's day, traditionally one of the least-crowded days of the season
