This weekly skate every Tuesday night, leaving Middle Brighton Baths
at 7pm. Please aim to be at the carpark by 6.45 to pay for parking and
get your gear on. When it is hot, this carpark can be very busy. The skate travels occasionally toward Black Rock, which is 16km

St. Kilda skate is more friendly to newer skaters as it is most

The Tuesday Night Skate

This weekly skate every Tuesday night, leaving Middle Brighton Baths at 7pm. Please aim to be at the carpark by 6.45 to pay for parking and get your gear on. When it is hot, this carpark can be very busy.

The skate travels to St.Kilda which is a 12km round trip and takes about an hour to complete. There are regular stops along the way to all catch-up and re-group. It is important to stop with the group so we can account for everyone.

This skate is for adults only. The only time a minor can join is if they (1). Are with a parent who skates with them (2). Wears a helmet.

If we deem that the skate may not be suited for you regardless of age, you will be advised before heading off. Again, we want to see you have fun.
