Yes, another Friday, another P&P thread! You know the drill by now, lots of the finest sporting photography you can find. Today, loosely based around just one word - "Rock".

After a successful climing career she then moved on to Rally Raid (ala Paris Dakar) I met her very briefly around 2004-2006ish when she was in the UAE Desert Challenge.
