Friday 16th May - The Iron Man Skate | 
London Friday Night Skate |  | We are GO!No, not like the Ironman in Hawaii (phew!), more like Iron Man The Movie. Yes, indeed, this is the return of the Superhero skate. We shall be flying around Regent's Park and through Little Venice like Iron Man, and only notice the next morning that we're Thor...
Half time will be at Chalk Farm. > Route details |  |

 |  |  | | Friday 2nd May - Up the ArsenalYes my dears, it's time again to put on your red shirts ready for this week's LFNS, which takes us to the fabulous Emirates Stadium, home of the Arsenal. We always have fun skating around the stadium at half time, and if you need to get home early, perhaps to clean your balls ready for the big game on Sunday, well, the nearest tube is Arsenal, just up the road.
After experiencing a bent track rod (nasty), and then a snapped spoke, our very own Firebrox will make a welcome return, steering straighter and running smoother than ever before. Ridden by Jim and mixes by A Toon Too Far, da music may yet put a stop to all that.
The route has some gentle hills, so as always on a street skate, you must be able to stop and turn yourself safely. We aim to leave promptly at 8pm, so check the route map to find a meeting point if you think you might be late. > Route details and Photos |  |

Sunday 18th May - To the Tower (and back) Sunday Stroll | | PendingWere off to Tower Hill this week, which is kind of the direction for the first 1-way-stroll that is being run soon, but were going back to the park. Its about 9 miles so a little longer than normal, so bring water. > Route details |

NEWS
Easter Eggstrvaganza is Here!
 It's that time of year again and the Easter Eggstrvaganza is back. Four days of fun filled skating events starting with the LGFNS, loads of free lessons, the infamous Bunny Stroll. a party and the now legendary Egg & Spoon Race on Monday. See the website for more details.
Stroll on film
Our friends from FSTarragona recently attended a Sunday Stroll and took some video footage. They've kindly allowed us to post the video here.
SantaSkate
What can we say? This year's SantaSkate was a huge success. Almost 500 skaters from around the world descended on London, put on their Santasuit/fairylights/christmastree costumes and skated around London for a few hours whilst partying down to some classic Christmas cheese and some dodgy German techno Christmas carols. According to one lovely Scottish lady, she was surprised, and impressed to find that the German techno artists got the words right to Auld Lang Syne - something of a rarity south of the border. There are too many pictures and video links to post them all here, but checkout the official thread on SerpentineRoad.
We're on Facebook
Over 250 of you have already started using our application. If you're an avid Facebook user and you want to keep up to date with the status of the coming skates each week then try out the new Facebook LFNS Skate Updates App.
Donations
The LFNSTM is STILL not asking for money over the web. If we were, it would say so here. But we aren't.
However, due to popular demand, we have created a donations account, whereby one off payments or regular contributions can be made, finally removing the need for our regular contributors to use cheque books and hard cash. Contact us if you require further details.
As always if you give money to anyone else claiming money on behalf of the regular Friday and Sunday streetskates in London it is not going to the LFNSTM. If in doubt just come and ask one of the marshals to point you in the right direction.
T-shirts
It's cold, it's dark, it's Winter! So why on earth would you want to buy a t-shirt? But if you do a limited number of official LFNSTM t-shirts are still available: get one now before the weather gets warm again.

So now you can use WAP to find out! Go to wap.lfns.co.uk on your Mobile

We don't charge for this service - normal WAP connection costs apply.
