Brand new rollerblades

Posted by JacQ

After couple of months of Jeremy training me how to rollerblade properly – learning how to stop without running into stuff. We bought ourselves brand new pairs of skates!

We had been going up to Austin every other weekend to rollerblade at the Veloway. This is Austin’s first trail exclusively for bicycles and rollerblading. No hikers or pets allowed. This is the perfect place to learn rollerblading and biking without worrying about street traffic, children running around and such. Also, this trail is a clockwise, one-way, two-lane trail, so you won’t have any problem running into others. If you are faster, stay on the left lane, if you are beginner and slower, stay on the right lane. This awesome 3.1 mile winding paved trail is free to all bikers and rollerbladers!

Jeremy’s rollerblade is the Rollerblade Crossfire II 4D.
