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.

   Skate to Coney Island -- Part One -- The Manhattan Side

This year, Ed led a masterful skate to the beach. Here are some photos from the start of the skate, the West Side bike path and all the way to the Manhattan Bridge.

   Skate to Coney Island -- Part Two -- The Brooklyn Side

Ed led a plethora of skaters through Brooklyn back streets like a native. These photos cover the Manhattan Bridge, Prospect Park and of course, Coney Island.
