We'll Skateboard around DTLA.
Meet at 2nd and Main outside Pit Fire Pizza @ 8:30 pm / skate at 9pm
Long boards, short boards, whatever you want.
Taco Tuesdays is riding thru Downtown so we'll probably hook up with them at some point for beers.
dust off your skate decks and let's ride.

My skate board was run over by a bus a few weeks ago. Anyone have any used parts? Need one truck and a new deck.

reply
ben, i have an extra indy truck you can have. i don't remember what size it is....maybe a 159? or 155? are those even indy sizes?
I have a complete deck you can use tomorrow if you want. it's on the skinnier side, single kick but totally fun to ride.
can someone bring a skate tool?

Oh shit. I didn't realize that this was happening tomorrow. I'm working my job then.

i went last time and it was pretty fun. look up skate and destroy 2
thread.it has a cool video that barleye put together.
if you do put on the ride yourself and include bmx bikes,might as well invite the rollerbladers too.that would be a motely crew of freaks.

Yeah for sure! Motley Crue indeed!
I talked to barley back in the day when I tried to put this on originally but got too slammed with work. I'd like to get Al out there with his sound system to jam the appropriate soundtrack for our shreddin!
What's the consensus with regards to one location or many? Barley what seems to work best? I was thinking like a 5 mile radius that would include many "spots" and a few liquor stops with a meet point near a metro stop.
Thoughts?

Friday the 13th is the M.R. ride.
I really didn't have a plan for either of the snd's.
we just sorta wung it and they started slow then picked up a bit. check the video. I like the idea of just riding around town like we do on bikes...a route would work best. a thursday night is a good night as not much cycling happens on thursdays.

Yeah, damn. Forgot that was MR night... hasn't been posted yet.
Thursdays don't work for me because of Bicykillers... First Fridays were always empty... hmmmmm.
