New bolt on Blimp - Bundaleer 7-May-2018 At 7:07:23 AM kieranl
Message
I'm in two minds about it. I don't like seeing crap fixed gear on popular routes; while many people are discriminating and assess the value of fixed gear many more just blindly clip any piece of fixed gear and carry on as if it's bombproof.

So, if the piton was really unnecessary, remove it. Otherwise, replace with a bolt. But it should have been a glue-in in that rock.

Did they really "drill" the peg out or is that a misinterpretation of the piton removal process (ie hammer the peg backwards and forwards)?
