Default Like a bike?

Hi
Just wondering whether you all agree that skill games are like riding bikes. Once you learn them you never forget? The reason I ask is that my son asked me for a game of chess yesterday and to be honest I thought I was quite rusty in that I had forgotten a fair bit of the strategy side of the game.
It was quite embarrassing how easy he beat me and to be honest I think he thought I gave him the game!
Do you find if you haven't played a game in a while you loose the ability to play well?
