"Skitching" — skating while hitched to a vehicle — is an underground practice that is becoming ever more popular among the growing ranks of New York roller skaters.

Even in New York, tagging along on the bumper of a vehicle moving at 40 mph is regarded as illegal, unsafe and foolhardy.

That is precisely why skitchers do it.
