I doubt it. There are a ton of people there, plus I bet it'll be rainy...I went to Scotland/England for a week and a half in 8th grade and saw the sun twice hahaha I thought it was just something to make fun of the English for never seeing the sun...but it's true

It depends where you are in london, its a pretty big place. You'll be alright if you aren't on oxford street or somewhere like that. There are loads of parks and quiet roads, you just have to find them.
Go on the lush forum (Lush Longboards • Index page), lots of people from the UK on that, and a load of information on skating in london.

But it will rain a lot, especially this time of year.

Its gonna be raining bad times!
On the other hand, it might be alright
Chuck a PM to Anjo K, he organises a bunch of sessions in london
There's also a Facebook group called London Longboards or something, about 60 members, they sort a bunch of sesions in London as well.

And finally, if you get out of London, the Canterbury and Thanet crew sessions are on the link in my Sig if you'd care to join us for a skate.
