Middle age men inline skating why so wrong?

Following on from a thread about Inline Skating I was wondering what is so wrong with Middle age men doing this activity especially in England.

My Daughter is horrified at the thought of me taking up this activity saying everyone will take the P**s. But Why ? Whilst I was in the Netherlands I noticed everyone Inline skated whole family's would be out at weekends.

It would seem to be an excellent way to cross train working different muscles to those used in running and fitness walking or cycling.

I would love to get into this but feel I would be the only one in my area and would be shunned by the community in general lol.

Any thoughts on the matter folks ?

DUDE, you are forgoing one of the greatest joys of being a parent.
Which is:
To embarrass your children! It's practically a duty...wear some compression shorts and a sleeveless t-shirt and have fun.
