Marxist Leninism is a weapon of the workers
Sorry Ian, but the best all round fellrunner has got to be Colin Donnelly.
Best descender Keith Anderson without a shadow of a doubt.
Best climber here are few that some of you might not have heard of Malcolm Patterson, Mike Short, Jack Maitland, Robin Bergstrand.
Of todays climbers maybe only Jebby is worth a mention, again, sorry Rob but you have lost it a bit in the last few years!
The Devines
Maitland was a truly great racer, and not only a hard ascender (ask fanny!) you should have seen his descents on the S-Z!
Andy Styan and Ricky Wilde were no slouches at descending
and Colin Robinson's descent of Whernside in 1969 - 12min 44sec, simply stuff of legend!!
Fantastic video of one of the very best spotted on MST today
Poacher turned game-keeper
Imagine how fast he'd have gone in a pair of Inov8s
Anyway, I'd have taken him on the scree. I'd need a different soundtrack though, maybe some Napalm Death.
