[GoGreenLongboarding]

I usually skate around MSU/EL several times a week.

welcome week is usually the only week of the year you'll get messed with by the cops for longboarding. For the record, skateboarding is only banned on grand river and albert in the business district (between abbot and hagadorn). anywhere else they cant mess with you. for what it's worth, never once have i gotten in trouble for skating the bike lanes, even on grand river ave. west of the 'no skating zone'. One time a cop even clocked me as i was pumping along and just yelled out "14 miles per hour!"

most of the people i rode with last year that were at a good experience level (i.e. not dangerous while riding around people, can stop, etc.) seem not to call me anymore, but there are still some people around. I'd be happy to skate around any time, hit the garages, and a hit couple little spots (nothing huge but there is some fun territory)

p.s. if you're willing to go a few miles over to downtown lansing, we have an insanely long parking garage, its not the fastest in the world but definitely fast enough, and the seven levels of insanely long goodness make up for it.
