I wish rollerblading was in again. Strap on some spandex shorts and your favorite Backstreet Boys t-shirt and roll away!

Anyone else miss it? No?
Fine . Bump YOU.
I'm riding off on my big purple bike.

    YES! I knew there were closet bladers out there.

    I just wish my roller blades weren't in the States.

    I'm sure there's a stack of archaic exercise formats that need to be revitalized.

    Jazzercise anyone? In fact... who remembers Mousercise? THAT was my first workout record.

    Used to skate from Newport beach to Balboa every weekend when I was stationed in California.

    I used to RollerBlade a few years back when I worked 2nd shift. Was doing about 6miles in 45min every day before work, then stopped doing it when I joined roller derby. Once I ruined my knees with that, I decided I no longer belong on wheels.

    There are plenty of rollerbladers around here. I notice because those wide sweeps cross over into my bike lane :(

    Still, I am impressed at the ones going up some of those hills!

    Screw Roller Blades, I want Roller Rinks back. Disco skating, now that was fun :)

    Oh and there were no braces, no helmets and no knee pads, when you wiped out it really hurt :P

    I liked rollerblading a lot. Until I broke both arms doing it. I never got on a pair of rollerblades again.

    I'm an absolute disaster area with no balance. I got the bright idea to take my siberan husky with me. Got going too fast, and fell, snapping both arms.

    I love roller blading and do it a lot in the summer. I live near a state park and there are a lot of people that do it! It's alot of fun near the lakeshore beach.

    I actually was inspired to buy a pair last weekend when I saw a group of people rollerblading. I haven't got to use them yet though because it's been too cold. Can't wait though! I plan to bring it back into style!

    Maybe everyone down here gave up on it.

    I loved speed skating and long distance skeelering (roller blading in dutch). Got an auto immune disease in 2011 that impairs balance so I can't do it anymore. Sniff. Wish I could though. I had huge glutes when I was doing this.
