May 2, 2023 at 12:01 PMWednesday Night Skate is an absolute blast! The energy of skating through NYC with a huge crowd is unreal. The route is well-planned, with plenty of smooth roads and iconic city views. My only tip—bring good wheels because some streets can be rough!

May 11, 2024 at 10:59 PMThis skate is my weekly cardio! The 12-mile route is long enough to push yourself, but there are enough stops to rest. I love how everyone encourages each other, especially on the uphill sections.

September 5, 2024 at 4:55 PMI convinced my whole friend group to come, and now we’re hooked. It’s so much fun skating in a pack, weaving through traffic together. We’ve even made friends with other skaters who now join us for weekend sessions.

September 12, 2024 at 5:59 PMI was visiting NYC and decided to join after seeing a post about it. Best decision ever! Skating through Times Square and under the bridges at night was surreal. It was a little intense at times, but the adrenaline rush was worth it.

October 15, 2024 at 6:22 PMI was a little nervous about joining because I’m not the fastest skater, but everyone was super welcoming. I stuck to the back, and a few experienced skaters helped me with tips. The vibe is fun, but be prepared for a workout!

January 1, 2025 at 12:00 PMI’ve been doing WNS for years, and it never gets old. The best part is the mix of people—some skaters are dancing, some are zooming, and others are just cruising. We always end up at a bar afterward, which makes for great post-skate stories!
