    There's the London friday night skate which has been running for years now. They do skates, on wednesday, friday (main one), saturday for beginners and a sunday one.

    Stop running due to lack of interest

    You didn't give it long enough. You should have kept at it

    Yes because organising a skate event and having no one show up is the best way to get started. I might start it again next summer.

    I think it's a great idea and had strapped my skates back on after a long hiatus in an effort to get my endurance up enough for a road skate.

    I think that maybe starting earlier in the summer next year might be a help alright. The evenings closing in aren't going to be good to a newbie outdoor event.

    I will give you a hand in organising/marketing next summer. Please send me a DM!
