Come join us for a fast-paced skate work-out through the city lights.
About 2 hours of skating with optional stop for ice cream on the way back.
Please arrive by 6.45pm to allow time to put on your skates and safety gear.
We will leave Akarana Car Park at 7pm.
This event is for experienced skaters who:
- are confident to skate in low light across different surface types: brick tiles, jutter platforms, wooden planks, gravel texture, road crossings
- are able to skate a distance of 15-20km/2hours
- can stop suddenly and watch out for bikes, electric scooters, pedestrians and cars etc.
There are two Bridge crossings that require a reasonable level of fitness to skate up, and the ability to reduce speed skating down - some parts do not have support rails.
Best parking is in front of the big screen at 'The Landing' boat marina carpark next to Akarana Eatery - parking between the white lines is free.
Recommend wearing helmets, knee/elbow pads, wrist guards and bringing water.
This is a free event, however if you would like to support our group so that we can continue to run more events like these, please visit:
