You're leading it."<br> <br> Me: "I suck at roofs more. You've gotta lead it. You're way stronger than me."<br> <br> Him: "I'm only good at crack climbing. You'll cruise it. It's all you!" <br> <br> Me: "No dude, who told you that."<br> <br> Him: "You're leading it!! Just accept it!!!"<br> <br> Me: "..."<br> <br> Photo by Nick W. from Vermont <br> (our third [but super cool!] wheel)<br> <br> January 2010
