โ And for your own safety:
Skaters MUST be comfortable with skating in the dim and dark ๐.
You may encounter branches/rubble and unlit path/road users ๐ถ๐พโโ๏ธ๐ด๐พโโ๏ธ.
Protective gear is encouraged!
Indication rules:
๐๐พ Pointing up to signal getting into a single-file when we make way for incoming or overtaking road users.
๐ฃShout โBIKEโ for incoming cyclists, โBIKE BACKโ for trailing cyclists about to overtake.
(Adjust wording for other moving entities like: CAR, DOG, UFO)
๐คFinally: look after each other!
๐ With that out of the way, this is the usual Library - Sports Centre - Eddington route for intermediate skaters. However, this is a bit more challenging due to lack of daylight.
๐ก Lights: Fancy wheels, torches, candles, oil lamps, bioluminescent algae ๐ช.
Anything that makes YOU visible and makes you see what's in front of you ๐
โ Weather permitting, Faried will lead a casual slow-paced city skate route with straight and not crowded paths.
There are a few road crossings and one short slope you can easily roll out into. ๐ Still, practice your stops!
