Re:Introduce yourself! - 12:19 29 Jun 07 Hi,
Just signed up to your forum, having been a casual skater for a number of years, trundling round Eelmoor on occasion. I expect I'm a bit of an oldie in comparison to you others - is there a veteran's class? I've just got myself some inline speed skates and already thinking about signing-up for Goodwood in a few weeks. My main sport is cycling, so the endurance doesn't bother me, just whether my feet and ankles will survive!

Re:Introduce yourself! - 12:42 29 Jun 07 Hi Monty Dog and welcome to cskate. Don’t feel too ignored if no one else says hello for a while, it’s going to be a bit quiet on here this weekend with many of the regular posters away at Le Mans. Oh and don’t go thinking you’ve got the vet’s category all to yourself, there’s a few of us ahead of you in that particular class!

Re:Introduce yourself! - 17:07 02 Jul 07 Hi! I'm a little old lady skater. I ice skate and have inline roller figure skates so I can skate the same way I ice skate. These inline figure skates are very new - I may be the first person in UK to own a pair.
See http://figureskating.about.com/od/equipment/gr/picskate.htm and
http://jumpspin.com/skate/

Living near Winchester, I would like to know if there is anywhere in Hampshire that I can skate under cover when it's raining - preferable somewhere free???

Re:Introduce yourself! - 00:07 03 Jul 07 Hi Monty Dog and sanderella, welcome to the site

Monty Dog, you are definitely not the oldest here with the oldest being 71!

sanderella, I have seen those jumpspin skates before but never in the UK, would love to see them in use. While we have lots of places to skate outside I'm afraid all the inside places cost money. Check out the Camberley Arena and Winter Sessions in the FAQ. Had a very quiet, relaxing but fun time at Eastbourne Extreme. Oh I do like to be beside the sea side. - Twitter Status

Re:Introduce yourself! - 08:16 03 Jul 07 Monty Dog - did I see you at Eelmoor the other week? I'd have been in an LSST top and not doing very much.

Welcome to you both..! ! Skate Monkey !

Re:Introduce yourself! - 15:40 03 Jul 07 Lemming - yes, it must have been me you met a few weeks ago one Tuesday evening. My new skates have arrived, so conditions permitting, I may venture over to Eelmoor tonight. I had my first fall in years on Thursday, luckily only scuffing my old skates and wrist guards - conditions were ideal with a slight cross-wind which meant a little bit more speed on the backstraight than expected! I'll have to be careful with the new skates then as I know they're a lot, lot faster.
