i thouht about getting back into cross country but then i thought about how i wouldnt go to the skatepark everyday and id be at cross country. the thing that i like best about scootering is not having scheduled meets, games, or practices. scootering has freedom. if i want to ride tommarow, i can. if i dont, i wont. i just like the fact that i have freedom to when and where i do it. plus, as long as theres no snow on the ground, i can scooter all year round.
