[SkateDC] This Sunday's (6/21/09) Skates

[Andrew Baxley]

Feel free to recycle any old routes of mine now and forever.  I made nearly all of 'em up on the fly or with minimal preparation.  So they're not exactly tablets from the mount.

> The route for the Sunday Intermediate Skate (which leaves from the White House at 9 AM)  is a recycled route from Andrew Baxley.  It's a 14.5 mile route, basically a figure eight that goes first to RFK and then to Adams Morgan.  It's not a particularly hilly route as these things go and I plan on taking it at a fairly leisurely pace.  Bill has graciously offered to sweep the route.  If you're looking for the next gentle step up from a Friday Night Beginner's Skate this is it.  The weather will be bonny:  dry, sunny, with temps in the 70's.

Nine of us went out for a Friday Late Skate beginning at about 10:30 PM. It was a fast, wild skate led by Pete. I was very happy that I put some new faster wheels on my skates and that helped me to keep up with the other maniacs.
