Skate DC Joined 'Skate DC Weekend' (May 11 to 13, 2007).
It was a lot of fun to skate by seeing familar landmarks such as White House, Capitol House, Jefferson Memorial, Lincoln Memorial.
The condition of pavement was very good in DC so that we enjoyed real smooth ride.

NY Times Article Empire Skate Club's Thursday Evening Roll (TER) is in NY Times - 'UrbanEye' email. --- QT --- FITNESS Public Efforts There are nearly as many New York Sports Clubs as Starbucks, but why do your sweating indoors? Among the cityfs countless options for outdoor exercise, roller skating aficionados will take a glide around Central Park tonight. Join them, then head to a gskate-friendlyh bar afterward. Or do some outdoor yoga - on the grass in Bryant Park or on a rooftop at sunset in Times Square. See? You can sweat anywhere, not just at the gym (or in the subway). Skating, meet at 6:45 p.m. at Columbus Circle; free. Call the SkatePhone - (212) 774-1774, ext. 2 - in case of iffy weather. --- UQT --- But it started raining little before 7PM as if the sky was waiting for the beginning of TER... :: DATA :: Skates: none Route: none Mileage: 0km Weather: Temp. 80F (+27 C). Winds 5 miles/ 8 km (Various), Events RAIN, Humidity 86%.

Skate 'n' Lunch Skated to downtown and picked up a falafel sandwitch and ate at the pier near the Christopher Street.

I would like to live a place where the weather is always like this. :: DATA :: Skates: CnarIam Platino + Boen 326 + HyperG 8085 with 608 Route: West Side Path Mileage: 20km Weather: Temp. 77F (+25 C).
