Here's what's happening during Skate Week SF

Skate Week San Francisco, a six-day celebration of roller and inline skating kicks off Tuesday night, and there's lots to do.

Why it matters: The event celebrates 45 years since the birth of the Golden Gate Park Skate Patrol, which prevented the activity from being banned in the park.

What's next: Brush off your skates and get ready to roll at Church of 8 Wheels Golden Gate, located in the Presidio.

• And if you don't know how to skate or simply want to brush up on your skills, you can learn from the best on Thursday at noon.
