The First Friday Skate:
Skaters meet on the first Friday of
every month at the intersection of
Meridian Avenue and Lincoln Road Mall (Miami Beach) at 6:30 PM.  If you're planning to join them, please be ready to roll by 7:00 PM SHARP!

The First Friday Skate is a police-
escorted skate tour through some
  of the lushest neighbor-
hoods  in Miami Beach.  The  route
 is about 10-12 miles and the
group travels at an average
 speed  of 10-12 miles-per-hour,
(sometimes faster, depending
on the neighborhood and road
conditions.) There is at least one
water break at the midway point.
Helmets are mandatory, and
blinking lights are a must after
 dark.

Cyclists and others who would like to join us at the First Friday Skate are welcome. This event is FREE and open to  participants of all ages.

Skate and Bike Rentals:
Skates and bikes are available for rent at Fritz's Bike and Skate Shop at 730 Lincoln Road, (305-532-1954). This shop is  just a few yards from the intersection where we meet.  

Parking:
There is convenient parking at the 17th Street Parking Garage.  The fee is $1 per hour for the first 4 hours. After 4 hours there is a flat rate of $15.
