This month's cruise will be an extra long

East of Woodbine Avenue, on the corner
of Kew Gardens. You can take the bus
south from WOODBINE subway station
or take the long Queen streetcar ride

We'll leave at 1:15pm and go ride
the oh-so-smooth "bike" path,
soak up the sunshine, socialize,
take breaks during multiple "pit stops"

no one gets left behind and you'll be
guided back to the subway at the end.
FAQs -
What is SMBC? Am I skilled enough???
Will I fit in? Where do you skate exactly?
Since May 2007, SMBC has been attended
by skaters of all skill levels, by punks,
emos and preppies, kids, millennials
and OGs in their 40s and 50s.
EVERYONE IS WELCOME TO JOIN.
We've even skated with a 70 year-old!
We won't ask you to make a speech
and there is no hazing ritual involved.
People have made life-long friends at SMBC.
Just show up with a longboard or skateboard
aaaaaaaaaaaannnnddd a HELMET!
A fun time is had by all. Oh, and it's FREE!
We ride The Martin Goodman Trail
which means no worrying about cars.
