Once but twice to get wiped out in San Francisco. The first time was getting off the train at fourth and king and trying to go across the platform. The traffic stopped, so i started walking, and the bike didnt stop and went threw the e red light at 100 Miles Per Hour. Maria remembers it because she wrote it down and the situation was written down. Next time i got nearly wiped out was right here in front effort steps entering city hall.

You go all over europe, you look at the great places and look at paris and brussels, lux ombourg. Public comment is closed and commissioner, any closing words . Thank you, everyone. We know this is tough work and we a lot more we need to do and appreciat
