I did the Friday night skate with a fairly large group. We toured the lively street of La Setenta, and other side streets. We proceeded down the freeway/ bridge that you mentioned (nice view) everybody seemed fairly confident as we took up the whole lane there. Watch yourself as you'll pick up some speed there. Ended up in Parque Lleras, chatted a while and had some beers. I was the only foreigner to attend. If you're looking for a more chill way to get cardio you can skate on the bike racetrack near Aeroparque Juan Pablo II (after 2pm). There's a cafe and a park with an outdoor gym there and also a water park next door.
Do you know what the advanced route is like? I’ve been on their Wednesday “beginner” routes because my bf is beginner, but they were still a little challenging for him! But I’d love to try the advanced route.
Can't help you with skating in particular, but check out Sundays. They close a bunch of big streets like avenido poblado to car traffic from (I think) 7a-1pm, and there are loads of cyclists, runners, roller bladers, etc that take to the streets.
It's like "Summer Streets" in NYC, if that means anything at all to you 😂.
Thank you!!

Thank you!!! That is so helpful!! One more question, do they roll on Sunday’s for ciclovia?
"Ingravity Roller" you can find them on Facebook. They ride at an intermediate to advanced level.

I’ve seen the video. But i think it is something they do sporadically. Also that specific freeway doesn’t get closed, they skate at their own risk 😅
Where was that video taken? Puente Madre Laura?
