Rollerbabes in April 2021 at the beaches in Toronto
  • Steaming from the Toronto rollerblade inline skater group (Meetup-Re_Meetup_Bladers_group_problem.pdf), the skater known as speedy wanted to create a group to provide a more adequate skating experience for females but due to low female attendance on skating events, the process took time.
  • From the old inline skating group with 400 skaters many females were surveyed. Most never replied.
