"Dale - cleaning my bearings is something I do on a regular basis, so I'm not sure which kind you are used to. The brand I used is called Reds (hence the color of the plastic cover), and they're intended to be opened for cleaning, revealing the bearings inside the housing. I decided to stick with it, since it fit the metaphor I was going for, but thanks for the advice!"
Never heard of that. It is my daughter who rides (I repair). When I used to ride, it was on a "sidewalk surfboard" homemade by the rider from a one inch board cut to what ever shape/size the person choose, with wheels from metal skates. The first little rock, or crack you hit meant you were stopping abruptly, and probably eating some concrete. The only trick we had was sliding sideways to stop, anything else would have split them in two.

How long after picking up the brush, the first masterpiece?
The goal is not to obfuscate that which is clear, but make clear that which isn't.
