Why aren't you blogging??? At some point with doing this blog, I came up with an informal set of rules, one of which was to never write anything negative. It produced a big delay on my blogging as I sorted out what I was capable of saying about WAR, the Washington Area Roadskaters as a club, both positive and negative. I enjoyed discovering the club. I enjoyed joining and contributing my time and resources as a board member. It was great fun promoting the club and rebuilding the membership records from scratch. I also enjoyed leaving the club. It was very liberating. Now I can go skate and not have to worry about making all the people who kept placing their demands on me happy. My free time is finally my own again. |

Adventures with a New Skater |
he Rock Creek Parkway is closed to cars on the weekends and a great place to skate -- this is what Agnieszka and I have heard. We really tried to get there!
ur trip to Rock Creek Park took an odd turn....

Chutes and Ladders along I-66 |
he Custis Trail runs parallel to I-66 between the Key Bridge and Falls Church. It is a great route to skate but be prepared to leave some of your braking rubber behind -- it has a lot of hills.
