Roadskater, Ph.D.<p>Put on my fives for the first time in 15 years and managed to skate 10 miles around the neighborhood without killing myself. We'll count that as a win.</p><p>But the feet were pleased as heck when I took them off.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/InlineSkating" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>InlineSkating</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/SpeedSkating" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SpeedSkating</span></a></p>
Empire Skate Club NYC<p>Hey, skate peeps. We know many of you (like us) were out rolling in Saturday's warm, humid weather. Good for you. (Long look over at those peeps who did the skate-my-age roll with a dude who turned 65! You weirdos.)</p><p>But the heatwave is now here, and it's time to take a few days off. We'll skate with you on the other side.</p><p><a href="https://masto.nyc/tags/NYC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NYC</span></a> <a href="https://masto.nyc/tags/InlineSkating" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>InlineSkating</span></a></p>

Empire Skate Club NYC<p>Continuing south…</p><p>Cherry Walk — the section of the West Side Bike Path from Harlem Piers (125th St) down to 100th St — that re-opened recently is really nice. As in really-really. Entirely re-surfaced except for a couple very short bits that were probably resurfaced a few years ago during another project.</p><p>We were also happy to discover that a section of the <a href="https://masto.nyc/tags/RiversidePark" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>RiversidePark</span></a> promenade in the high 90s alongside the tennis courts had been partially resurfaced.</p><p><a href="https://masto.nyc/tags/NYC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NYC</span></a> <a href="https://masto.nyc/tags/InlineSkating" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>InlineSkating</span></a></p>
Empire Skate Club NYC<p>Below that from about 172nd St 'latitude' to 125th, it's a mix of good spots and average spots, some of the average spots having been good 4-5 years ago but not so much now.</p><p>Only careful spot in that stretch is the weekend barbecue territory just north of Riverbank State Park, i.e., in the upper 140s. But it was like that the last time we rolled through there.</p><p>2/</p><p><a href="https://masto.nyc/tags/NYC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NYC</span></a> <a href="https://masto.nyc/tags/InlineSkating" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>InlineSkating</span></a></p>
Empire Skate Club NYC<p>Monday evening (before the rain), we rolled from the West Side Bike Path from Jeffrey's Hook (the Little Red Lighthouse) to the Battery, and conditions were… variable. Mostly good to excellent, but some real crap along the way.</p><p>Up in the north, the condition of the bikepath alongside and to the south of the Fort Washington Park tennis courts is bad. Not completely un-skateable, but definitely 'be very careful' territory.</p><p>1/</p><p><a href="https://masto.nyc/tags/NYC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NYC</span></a> <a href="https://masto.nyc/tags/InlineSkating" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>InlineSkating</span></a></p>
Roadskater, Ph.D.<p>Out skating Thursday evening, and a mile from home, wiped out because of something slick spilled from restaurant garbage along the side of Amsterdam Ave.</p><p>Big thanks to the cabbie who was behind me and did not run me over. Also to the pedestrian who retrieved my iPhone from where it slid 10 feet up the street. (Yes, it was in my hand when I went down.)</p><p>Additional thx to the other five pedestrians who were right there and wanted to make sure I was okay.</p><p>I love New Yorkers.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/NYC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NYC</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/InlineSkating" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>InlineSkating</span></a></p>
Jack C.<p>Tried to talk myself out of it at the last minute but I went for a skate after work today. Got some nice reactions from folks driving by, an air high five and a thumbs up. I'm glad I got back out on the road in the sunshine. </p><p><a href="https://indieweb.social/tags/inlineSkating" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>inlineSkating</span></a> <a href="https://indieweb.social/tags/rollerblade" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>rollerblade</span></a> <a href="https://indieweb.social/tags/rollerblading" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>rollerblading</span></a> <a href="https://indieweb.social/tags/exercise" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>exercise</span></a> <a href="https://indieweb.social/tags/outdoors" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>outdoors</span></a> <a href="https://indieweb.social/tags/motivation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>motivation</span></a></p>
Empire Skate Club NYC<p>Hearing last week that a bit of East River Park had re-opened, we took a look-see Thursday evening. It was fine.</p><p>Big problem is that only 0.25 miles of path along the shoreline is open. And that bit is hexagonal pavers with a slight edge bevel. So not the best <a href="https://masto.nyc/tags/InlineSkating" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>InlineSkating</span></a>.</p><p>There is a marked <a href="https://masto.nyc/tags/bikeNYC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>bikeNYC</span></a> lane inland near the FDR, but it's even shorter.</p><p>Only access is via a snazzy new pedestrian bridge at the end of Delancey St. (south side).</p><p>Looks like a great place for a picnic.</p><p><a href="https://masto.nyc/tags/NYC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NYC</span></a></p>
Empire Skate Club NYC<p>Out for a solo skate on Tuesday night.</p><p>We encountered 'a' Tuesday night skate, but it was mostly dudes on skateboards, so you know, not 'the' Tuesday Night Skate.</p><p>Anyhow, took a break at Greenpoint to admire the Manhattan Midtown view, and whoa, OMG, they turned on all the lights at the new Chase-Morgan building.</p><p><a href="https://masto.nyc/tags/NYC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NYC</span></a> <a href="https://masto.nyc/tags/InlineSkating" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>InlineSkating</span></a></p>

Roadskater, Ph.D.<p>Just been watching a couple video clips on Strava of a roller dance and <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/GroupSkate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GroupSkate</span></a> that were part of a wedding in Warsaw.

Cambionn<p>The skates where a great idea! Spend 1,5 hour on them today.</p><p>It takes some getting used to, but I picked it back up again quite quick. Still. I need a bit more practice till I'm going full speed feet over feet around the corners and making instant stops again. Luckily, it's calm here 😅.</p><p>Also, I had so many pretty pictures of the countryside, the sheeps, the goats, pony's, and more. But I'm only allowed to post 4 at a time 🥹.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.nl/tags/inlineskates" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>inlineskates</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.nl/tags/inlineskating" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>inlineskating</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.nl/tags/skates" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>skates</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.nl/tags/skating" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>skating</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.nl/tags/villagelife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>villagelife</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.nl/tags/village" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>village</span></a></p>

Last time I rolled that many days in a row was Christmas week of 2020, although Christmas of 2024 I did manage 6 outings in seven days.</p><p>Strangely enough, my legs aren't complaining much.</p>
Roadskater, Ph.D.<p>Didn't get in my birthday skate, but I managed to roll all three days of Memorial Day weekend and posted 90+ miles, especially enjoying Monday afternoon's jaunt to <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/RedHook" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>RedHook</span></a> and <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Greenpoint" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Greenpoint</span></a>.
