    Walked to work and home for the first time rather than taking the car. 5km each way.

    Today on the way in I noticed all the pavements are pretty decent for skating and there's a lot of downhills (and uphills too - well, it is edinburgh!).

    So I went out at lunch and bought myself some big soft wheels for cruising.

    Some Ricta Clouds 56mm at 78a
    and bones bearings.

    This'll go on the Element board I put up in the attic about 12 years ago.

    It currently has venture trucks and some old mini rats from the late 80s/early90s when I skated as a teen. They are something like 97a and hate little stones or rough pavements.

    Looking forward to my skate to work tomorro.
