What gear should I bring to Rumney?

I'm flying across the country and will be spending a few days at Rumney next week, so I'm wondering what gear I should bring. If I can get away with just a sport rack, that would be preferable, but I don't want to miss out on any classics that require some gear. Do I need to bring any trad gear? Or will there be plenty to climb with just a rack of draws?

Thanks!

no need to bring any trad gear. a sport rack will put you on all the classics you'd ever need if you are there for a few days.

Sport alone will keep you plenty busy for a few days. Minimum 60m rope. 14 draws and 4 two-foot slings should make sure you are never short on any climb.
Have fun.

Perhaps the most key gear not mentioned is that you should bring suitable clothing for a dip in the river post-climb.

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
