Does anyone else really enjoy being on wheels? I am definitely a total klutz so it's kind of dangerous for me, but I've always been pretty fascinated with anything with wheels. I just got some of those Heely shoes, and I can't seem to stop skating through my big kitchen. I wish I could just skate everywhere. I did it for hours the other night, just back and forth repeatedly through my kitchen, and my legs are still super sore. When I was a kid I SO badly wanted inline skates. After I got them, I used them as much as possible, but never really was very good at it (especially with stopping). Plus it's hard for me to find places I'm comfortable skating at. I just wish I had wheels for feet. I think I would get endless enjoyment out of that. Even things like scooters, derby cars, or anything like that are fascinating to me. I got to ride an ATV last year, which was a little scary, but I really enjoyed it. Can anyone relate to this?

I love to glide along. When I was working at a nightfill job at Big W (think Wal-Mart) the best time was zooming along with a shopping trolley from one end of the store to the other... Actually, that was probably the only good times I had at that job.

I like wheels, but I always fall over or run into something.

I can't skate at all and I didn't learn to ride a bike until I was 11.

The only wheels I like being on compose part of an automobile.

Rollerskater here! Started when I was four years old, began competing when I was eight, continued until I was in my twenties and moved away from the rink I skated for. Still love it.

I'm a bike rider, though I don't have one at the moment.

I actually learned to ride myself, at age 6, with no help from anyone.
