I'd not anticipated this would become a relatively risky project initially, but I guess I know my limits fairly well, and the style of movement is really predictable. It did weigh on my mind that if I fell it'd be a head-first job, but initially the fact that there was a river under the middle twenty metre section made it feel more justifiable. Only later on did I discover that it was shallow and not much use for a bailing option, but by that time I'd committed to my strategy and I just needed to do some mental gymnastics. [2]
