Whilst skating through the streets of London, please be mindful of other road users such as cyclists, motorcycles and cars in addition to larger vehicles such as vans, buses and trucks. Please be mindful that when sharing and occupying spaces, extra care and vigilance is necessary, particularly areas where pedestrians, those who are vulnerable such as children, parents/carers with pushchairs and those who are less able to walk or avoid obstructions in a quick fashion are present.

* Have street skated at least 5 times *

* Be confident in stopping *

HOW TO PREPARE:

Ensure skates have been serviced i.e., ensuring nuts, bolts, plates and wheels are secure and bearings are clean

Ensure skates are suitable for outdoor skating i.e. having suitable outdoor wheels 

Pack a t-tool, spare wheel, spare nuts & bolts, water, daily essentials (keys, phone), snack if necessary
