Just wondering if there is anyone out there who remembers the good times we had there and the parties after the second sessions ended.

My wife brought home a pair of old quads for me the other day. I put them on and almost killed myself. I thought that skating was like riding a bicycle. You know, something you never forget. Trust me....you DO forget. Guess I'll adjust the trucks and try again. I have this GREAT hill right outside my house.Think I should?

My wife says that she will be waiting at the botton of the hill, with an ambulance and EMTs.
