IT PASSED - IT PASSED - IT PASSED!!!!!!! Today the full board os the San Francisco Board of Supervisors voted 9 to 1 to pass the San Francisco Skate Transit Pilot Program. We will soon choose the streets and create criteria for the skate license. The Mayor will be signing the legislation within the next 30 days. Please read the details on the program at: http://www.cora.org This is the beginning step in geting skaters the same rights as a bicycle statewide. As skaters, we all have a responsibility to make this program work. I am looking forward in making this work. Big thanks to Supervisor Ammiano and Paul Pillitteri. This is a great victory for skaters everywhere. P.S. If you are a San Francisco resident, you could serve on the San Francisco Skate Advisory Committee. This is the group that will represent skater issues to the Board of Supervisors. More on that later. Keep Rollin', D. Miles Jr.
