i wonder if they give out the ropes at reception  ??? or may be cheaper to buy your own rope than join the PEC, but i've no idea how much a rope costs
think outside, no box required

I don't recall seeing any krabs to connect to to keep yourself safe as you climb the rope up (I'm sure there's a much more technical way to say that!). The cheapest full PEC membership that includes the climbing wall is £21 a month, but I'm not sure if you have to pay more on top of that to use the wall each time. If not then that would work out at £4-5 a session seeing as we plan on going at least once a week. That would be fine. Plus their cheap membership gives full use of the swimming pool too!

What time would they be starting at? Sorry, reread the original - 6:30!

I'm in work until 5:15 on Tuesdays, but either day would probably be relying on a lift from someone else going from Belfast. May be able to borrow my housemate's car...but it's not a given. Would be nice to get out on rock.

I could put an email out for you to see if anyone is travelling from Belfast?  It would make the drive cheaper as well as having a bit of company! 

Send us an email to [email protected] to book a place.  It has been very popular so far!

I, myself would be traveling from Ballymena, and thus would find it difficult to meet said times, if not even get appropriate transport?

Are there any other times/locations that you do RockandRideOutdoors?

Hi Pudd,

If you can not make 6:30pm due to where you are travelling is not a problem.  You can just meet us a bit later and still get at least 2hrs of climbing in.

Like I said earlier we are a small company who are passionate about the outdoors so being flexible is really important to us. 

As you are based in Ballymena we could look at doing a day up at Fair Head? Do you have any climbing experience?

Cheers

It's not the traveling down that would be the issue, it's the traveling back up, as Public Transport is a bit sparse in that respect.  However, I may have a way around that issue, though I'll only be able to attend one session a week, even if that due to an unorganised work schedule. 

I have zero climbing experience.  Not unless you account for scrambling over large boulders in the Mournes once or twice?  Lol. 

I'll give you a ring sometime today.
