i wish i could get in on the mike doyle clinic. i may not climb that hard *yet* but he's got some killer training ideas that hugh's been talking about.
katie's clinic is almost full so if you wanted in on trad you'd better sign up ASAP.

i'm not sure about the rest of them - but if you're thinking about signing up, you may want to do so ASAP before they're closed.
