Monday Night Skate
Not for the faint of heart! This group of skaters meets
every Monday night in San Francisco and skate a 10-15 mile
course (varying from week to week) of extreme downhills. Tthey
skate up (then down) the California Street hill, Franklin
Street into the Marina , the Presidio, Twin Peaks, and Gough
Street. They usually meet at the parking lot right outside
of the Golden Gate Tennis Club (just up the Embarcadero from
Justin Herman Plaza), though sometimes they meet in the Inner
Sunset, depending on the route. There isn't currently a contact
for this event, but if you email
me, I'll let you know if the meeting spot isn't at the
normal parking lot.
Wednesday Lunch Skate
A group that skates every Wednesday during lunch (roughly
12:00 pm to 1:00 pm), along the Embarcadero in San Francisco.
Don't worry, they take it easy. :>) They meet at Justin
Herman Plaza, near Embarcadero Center 4 across from the Ferry
Building. For more information, e-mail Catherine at great_eskate@hotmail.com
Stanford W ednesday Night Skate
Another group of skaters that meet
every Wednesday evening at Stanford. I haven't been able to
find details on this skate yet, but I will post them when
I do.
Friday
Night Skate
This is another easy-going San Francisco skate. A large group
of skaters (generally
between 100 and 300 skaters) meets every Friday night and
skate a 12-mile loop of San Francisco, with plenty of rest
stops and skate trick areas. They meet at the plaza area between
the Ferry Building and Justin Herman Plaza. They generally
show up at about 8:00 pm and play music until just before
9:00 pm, and they head out then.
Sundays in Golden Gate Park
Every Sunday, About a two miles of JFK Drive is closed to
motor vehicles. This closure also includes several smaller
roads coming off JFK in the east end of the park, and runs
from the east side to 19th Avenue. It is reopened at 5:00
pm or 6:00 pm, depending on whether it's Daylight Savings
Time.
