saw a guy on blades inline skates a few months ago so decided to dig mine out of the back of the wardrobe, bit of a pootle down a quiet smooth street. Just normal skating crossover cornering, bit of backwards, I don’t do park stuff so I guess I’m more likely to be from the OPs B&W pic (looks like John Bishop in the white pants!?) Was fun anyway, need new wheels tho.
Mrs thinks it’s tragic of course, was chilly so I had a hat on and buff covering half my face, half hoping I wouldn’t get recognised just incase anyone I know saw me, went passed some lads and heard one say “…that bloke who rides bikes…” 🙄
Yeah tragic but I still like it – still not been out since mind.
<edit>not understanding the hate from the skateboarders, guess it’s like mtb v road, xc v dh, but there seems to be some genuine hate there rather than banter.
