Snowdon climbers Notes

Ben Scott from UNITED KINGDOM writes:

Maddog's Unicycle Team are tackling the Snowdon descent on 13th September (Much before 10am)

We reached the summit of Ben Nevis in May and we learned a thing or two about layers!

Expecting overcast and cold, so anything else will be a bonus.

If you're reading this after 13th September, search Jam Jar Unicycling and you'll find the clips on Youtube
