Debbie Skates San Diego

Rollerskate from Solana Beach to Swami's on the 101!

Yesterday I struck it rich on my skate from Solana Beach to Swami’s. Thanks to a 5K, the 101 was closed to traffic and I was able to skate on the highway! Even without that, the skate is gorgeous and fun.
If you would like to try it, start at via de la Valle x 101 on the Coastal Rail Trail. Skate North, using the bike lane between Solana Beach and Cardiff, and then take the Encinitas Coastal Rail Trail to the end! Cross 101 if you want to check out Swami’s. It’s an 8 mile skate!

Rollerskate from North Park to South Park, plus learn how to slow down!

Get a quick workout and see a gorgeous part of San Diego, and learn how to slow down on hills!

Take this scenic 3.4 mile loop between the North Park and South Park neighborhoods. Definitely for those confident skating in an urban environment, this route is a fun way to see this pretty part of town.

Thank you Sharon, Ruth, Allie, and Lauren, for joining me!

Skating Neptune Ave in Encinitas!

Neptune Ave in Encinitas is such a nice little skate! End to end, I’d say it’s about 1 mile. Great views, house gawking, and pedestrian friendly!

Had a great skate with on the San Luis Rey River Trail this morning. Definitely a serious workout!
